Our Training Ethos
Why We Train the Way We Do
At Love Your Paws, we believe that dog training is about so much more than teaching skills. It’s about understanding your dog, building a relationship of trust and cooperation, and creating a life you can enjoy together.
Our ethos is rooted in:
- Seeing the world from your dog’s perspective.
- Using kind, thoughtful methods based on proven, science-backed training techniques.
- Focusing on the individual needs of each dog and owner.
We step away from the one-size-fits-all approach, focusing instead on personalised training that fits your goals and your dog’s unique personality.
Why We’re Changing
More Than Just Puppy Classes
Traditional six-week puppy courses are a good start, but we’ve seen that they often leave owners feeling unsure about what comes next. Training is a journey, not a one-time event, and puppies—and their owners—deserve more.
That’s why we’re introducing a flexible membership system that grows with you and your dog. This new approach allows you to focus on building the foundations for a confident, happy dog without the pressure of rushing through a short course.
