Dog Training and Workshops

In 2019 we brought our little rescue pup, Troy, home with us. At 6 months old he was a very steep learning curve!

From working with him, my eyes were opened and I took the plunge and entered into the world of Dog Training. I became a qualified and accredited Trainer with the IMDT, and specialise in reactivity support.

My training approach is centred around science-backed positive reinforcement, with the welfare and safety of everyone involved at the heart of everything I do.

I believe that training should be fun, building a strong bond between owner and dog, and this has lead to the creation of everything you’ll find here at Henry’s Paw Prints. We can’t wait to see you all and start your training journey towards a better, and more enriching, life for you and your pup!

Absolutely fantastic service, Jeffrey enjoyed his puppy classes so much and we are very proud of how he’s done. He even sits for mummy to take millions of pictures!
Sarah was fantastic, fun and never makes you feel bad (even when your pup sings through the whole class)! Thank you so much and we hope to join level 2 soon – Sophie Andrews

Putting all our dogs through training with Sarah was the best decision we could have made. Bringing 5 rescues from South Africa into a completely different way of life was challenging, Sarah made theirs and our lives, much easier. – Chris and Suzanne Styles

Bertie

We have taken part in Level 1 and 2 courses and some workshops too. Our high energy, wants-to-be-everyone’s-friend pup has benefited massively from the courses, he has become a well-behaved dog no doubt because of Henry’s Paw Prints. All the classes we have attended were fun and informative. Sarah has been very helpful answering any questions and its clear she is very passionate about training dogs. We look forward to Level 3 and some more workshops in the future. Would 100% recommend to anyone with a dog of any age. – Andrew Depledge
