Dog Training
Our training covers basic obedience from puppies upwards, gundogs, flyball and agility. Most of the training is done using the 'click and treat' (clicker) method. We can also offer heel work to music/dancing with dogs which is great fun. Also if anyone is interested in a class to teach your dog tricks, please let us know. Go to Dog Training for more information.
Dogs staying for residential training £100 per week ( min 6 weeks. )
Private one to one training £30 per session (approx.one hour) at Foxdown.
If you would like a home visit please call David Ward on 01823 252881
Classes
We aim to keep classes small enough to allow everyone to keep busy.
If a class gets too large we will do our best to form another one.
Dog Boarding
The kennels are properly licensed for 80 dogs. The dogs can be exercised in 15 acres of grounds as well as individual exercise yards. Go to Boarding for more information.
Animal Rescue
We will take and rehome most animals as long as we have the knowledge and space to look after them at the time. Our policy is not to put anything down without very good reason. We do ask for a donation for animals brought in or taken away to help cover costs as we are not a registered charity. For information on animals awaiting new homes, see Animal Rescue page.

I do a small amount of breeding of Labradors and Jack Russells and we also breed Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, a rare breed, for which I am the largest breeding kennel in the country.
