puppy packages with Optimistic Dogs

Investing in your puppy today with Optimistic Dog training is the first step in helping to set you and your puppy up for success and a long lasting bond.  I offer a unique variety of tailored puppy training packages which all include one to one support. A walk isn’t just a walk when in my care I like to make sure they have fun, lots of hugs and kisses, they get lots of mental stimulation and walks meet their needs. I like to call them adventure walks. This can happen on solo walks or group walks.

Optimistic Dogs is a Puppy Specialist and proud owner of Puppy School Dartford which is part of Puppy School franchise Puppy School UK. With world renowned dog trainer, behaviourist and Author Gwen Bailey.

It can be a struggle sometimes when you bring your puppy home, there is so much to think about and do and sometimes even questioning did I make the right choice.

All training is positive reward based, I work on a No Pain, No Fear code of conduct. I use food, toys, and praise.  I believe in no pressure on the dog and no pressure on you.
