Brilliant no nonsense trainer
Brilliant no nonsense trainer. We had a reactive terrier who is now improving every week!
Home visit re. Puppy behaviour issues
Having already attended classes, and a 1:1 loose lead walking session with Sarah, we knew exactly who to go to for a home visit to help us with some challenging behavioural issues with our lively 10 month old spaniel. Sarah manages to teach in a very knowledgeable and non judgmental manner. She is friendly and humorous in her approach and her guidance makes perfect sense. She just knows dogs!!! We have work to do, but now have a plan as to what we should be doing to help our pup become the dog that we want.
Very good trainer
Very good trainer, good clear instructions and a great help with any problems. A good course which builds on the previous weeks activities.
An excellent introduction to gun dog training
A carefully planned and very well delivered course, with clear objectives and instructions. Thoroughly enjoyed by both dog and owner. Highly recommended.
Very knowledgeable and friendly…
Very knowledgeable and friendly trainers. Always ready to answer any questions and lots of usual tips. Fantastic environment in which to train your dog.
We have enjoyed the puppy training…
We have enjoyed the puppy training course and found Sarah and Annie’s advice invaluable. Our puppy is coming on well and we are looking forward to the next stage of their training.
Outstanding
Simply outstanding all round service. No question unanswered, good balanced advice through all stages, from puppy to adulthood. Cannot praise Sarah and Annie enough!

Very easy to choose the training you need, with full details of what course entailed
Staff are knowledgeable and friendly
Staff are knowledgeable and friendly, we enjoyed and valued the sessions, the pace was good and atmosphere was encouraging. Always something new to learn when bonding with a new dog. Happy to earn our certificate and proud of the progress we have all made.
A fantastic five week course for puppy…
A fantastic five week course for puppy gundog training. Sarah explained each exercise clearly which helped us understand how and why we were working on them. In turn that ensured we were giving the right message to our puppy. Sarah and Annie are very knowledgeable about dog psychology and incredibly calm and patient, helping both dog and human! If the exercise didn’t go right they seemed to have a solution. I feel Truffle and I learnt a huge amount in a short length of time. We both highly recommend these classes and are looking forward to the next stage.
Puppy gundog course...
Having just finished the 5 week puppy gundog course I highly recommend it to any new dog owner. The staff are highly knowledgeable, friendly and happy to offer advice out of class times to nip behaviours in the bud. A relaxed atmosphere with humour added in when things don't always go to plan.
Welcoming and friendly staff
Welcoming and friendly staff. Very knowledgeable-happy to answer any questions and give advice.
Happy to answer questions outside of class times.
As a family we have learnt so much during this 5 week course and will definitely be doing the follow on group.
Many thanks to the whole team.
Puppy Gundog course…
Having just completed the Puppy Gundog 5 week course, I can highly recommend Sarah and Annie. As well as learning some basic training techniques each week, they were on hand to answer questions and offered helpful advice for adverse behaviour at home too. Sarah is very knowledgeable and we were confident in following her guidance with our strong willed and very energetic spaniel. Her own dogs are testament to her training skills. Everything was well organised and professional whilst personal and friendly. A great course.
My strong willed springer
Oscar is a very strong willed springer. Sarah and also now Annie have worked wonders with him. He will always be a work in progress. I have still alot of work to do with him.
The knowledge they have is amazing. Highly recommended.
4 Paws and a waggy tail
Great website full of information.easy ordering easy payments, response is perfect the best i have come across. Thank you dorset dog training 🐾🐶
Brilliant Loose Leash workshop
Would highly recommend Dorset Dog Training. We attended the Loose Leash Walking workshop on 23rd May for our large over excited Goldie who can pull like a train and never walk past another dog without wanting to say hello! Sarah was very welcoming, non judgemental and have us the tools we need to train him going forward. Within an hour of the workshop he was walking beautifully past other dogs which felt amazing! Still a lot of work to do over the coming weeks but feel so much more confident in getting to where we want to be.
I didn't know what to expect ( first…
I didn't know what to expect ( first time for a training class ) Sarah was so good explaining methods and how dogs respond to their owners . I learnt alot and feel more confident with my 10 month old spirited labrador. I would definitely recommend DDT 👌
Sarah has precisely the right approach…
Sarah has precisely the right approach for us, helping us to achieve the "obedience" we wanted for our Golden Retriever.
It's quite a distance from where we live, but it's been worth it as Sarah has helped us to start understanding how we should interact with our dog.
Stage 2 beginner obedience
Before deciding to complete stage 2 beginner obedience, I felt like I’d hit a brick wall with training and that we weren’t going to progress any further. Now having completed the course loose lead walking is becoming better everyday a long with other stuff such as greeting other dogs, settling around other dogs and recall. Not only is my dog learning to listen but I have learnt how to train my dog properly. Recommend Dorset dog training!!!
