Great place knowledgeable and caring trainers
Babydog was fantastic! I had no idea what to expect when I walked in with my 8 week old pup. Aviva, Dave and Ruth were great at explaining canine behaviour and helping me understand why something was going on! I became so interested in dog training and behaviour, I became a volunteer. I recommend Babydog to any new dog owner. Also don’t forget their weekly pack walk for dogs of any age!
We took our puppy Pitbull to babydog puppy socialization classes.The incredible rewards our pup and ourselves took back from them is fantastic.Our pup is a very happy well grounded pup who is growing so well cause of the classes and info I have received.Thanks so very much.Great work keep it up:) Zeus,Ray and Bridget :)
Emma was our trainer and she did a fantastic job with our nervous rescue pup! We saw incredible changes in her behaviour over several sessions with her. Definitely recommended
Maisy & I really enjoyed & learned a lot from our puppy classes. Definitely recommend!!
I emailed Baby Dog as a desperate new puppy parent. The private training gave me confidence and tools to connect with and train my dog. Aviva is so personable and patient, really taking the time to help you understand why each step she teaches is important. My pup was troublesome at Puppy Socializations but it was invaluable in teaching him the right and wrong way to behave around other puppies. We also joined a small group for a 6 week intermediate training course. Dog trainers don't magically fix everything, the biggest piece of the puzzle is the owner. I am SO grateful for the tools given to us by Baby Dog and it's trainers.
We took our puppy to Babydog at Bosleys it is 100% worth the 10 dollars for a drop in socialization class. We loved it so much we went 3 times a week for months. It really does help you learn your dogs body language, and getting to hold other peoples adorable puppies is priceless. If you like puppies you will love babydog
My pup is about to age out of the puppy socialization class. She has learned so much. I am proud of how much she has accomplished through this program. It has made her much easier to live with. Thank you Baby Dog. We have also attended the Sunday dog walk. Hopefully, we will get to kore of these to keep the connection.
