Social Walks and Hikes
Take your dog's training to the next level with our Social Walks. These walks are more than just exercise – they're an opportunity for your pup to build social skills and calm reactions. You'll also have the chance to walk with other like-minded dog owners, practice your handling skills and enjoy the great outdoors.
All with guidance from Jenny the trainer.

Helen Said:
Jenny has helped us so much. Our girl was reactive with other dogs, having been badly bitten by another dog just before we got her. We have learnt so much and our girl is so much better with other dogs. We continue our journey and Jenny’s social walks are so helpful and enjoyable.
