Our Mission
At SpiritedDog, we believe strongly in building the bond and relationship between owners and dogs, helping you to work as partners both in training and in everyday life. This is why we firmly believe in using positive reinforcement in our training. Our main passion is helping owners to enrich their dogs' lives through providing safe, fun outlets for natural behaviours and instincts, all while helping to hone and shape their skills and aiding them in gaining their confidence, no matter their age or breed.​ We want to work with your dog and get to know their character, their quirks and their habits - everything that makes them spirited! Whether they're quiet, bouncy, goofy or grumpy, we love a spirited dog!​

Frequently Asked Questions
As Dog Owners ourselves, we know how important it is to find the right trainer, who will treat your dog with the love and respect they deserve. Take a look below at all the reasons why you should choose SpiritedDog:
What training methods do you use?
We carry out all training with a positive reinforcement/force-free method. This is the best training method as the dog is in a happy state when training rather than being uncomfortable in certain situations.
How do I book?
For any 1-1 work with a new client we’d love to get to know more about you and your dog first. So before booking in any training sessions. We offer a FREE 15 minute consultation where we’ll chat more about the services we provide, and what it is you’re looking for.
If you’re interested in one of our fun courses you can fill in our form on that designated website page.
If you’re an “old friend” go right ahead and book the course you want with the “book now” button or pop us a message on whatsapp.
What types of training do you have on offer?
We offer 1:1 in person sessions, whether that be at your home, a local area or with us at the training hub in Blean, as well as online coaching sessions via Zoom.
How do your 1:1 sessions work?
Depending on your needs, we can keep all sessions at our training hub, which is a managed environment, and has the benefit of my own dogs being present for stooging, if we’re working on dog-dog reactivity or developing better manners. Or we can mix and match our locations to suit the purpose of our training. I like the dogs to always have a break or two within the session so they are able to process and I can chat you through what we’ve been looking at that stage.
