ABOUT THE DOG ACADEMY
We believe in building on the relationship between you and your dog through kindness, compassion and reward based training.
We train outdoors in Porlock and Allerford. We are also happy to do home visits.
​​
Our training is reward based, making it enjoyable, safe and provide both great mental and physical stimulation for you and your dog!

"Emma has tailored her Agility sessions to both of my dogs focusing on the areas they still need to learn or improve upon. Her patience and cheerful attitude no matter what is great!"
