All the training necessary to have a great family pet. Our aim is to achieve a dog that is happy, engaged and confident and teach you training skills that enable you to keep your dog listening to you in any situation.

At Sherborne Vale we start our training with the Good Citizen Puppy Award when possible. The course is for six weeks in total and costs £42.00. You can find more information on our Puppy Classes page.

If you have completed puppy training or have an older dog our Improvers programme would be the place to start. You can remain at this level as long as you like but also have the opportunity to work through the three nationally recognised Kennel Club Good Citizen levels. We offer three levels of the Kennel Club’s Good Citizen Scheme, Bronze, Silver and Gold. Click on the links below for information on each of the Kennel Club Good Citizen levels.

We hope that by the time you have completed Gold you’ll be addicted to teaching your dog new skills that are useful in the real world and so we are adding our own Platinum and Diamond level classes to our advanced Good Citizen classes.

Please note you are now able to book your classes,  online. More information about classes, times and venues here Good Citizen Classes
