I attended the Training Skills…

I attended the Training Skills Development Day and had a fantastic day. Lee & Helen made us feel welcome and steered the day around what the trainers attending wanted to cover, rather than having a strict agenda to follow. This ensured that we got the most out of the day and left feeling more confident and energised about our role as trainers. I would highly recommend the course to anyone thinking that they need additional skills to drive their business forward.

The Practical Skills Day

The Practical Skills Day was fantastic!

A relaxed, fun, learning day for both dogs and trainers alike. Lee and Helen held the day in a lovely setting and ensured that everyone got what they wanted out of the day.

A must attend for all members wanting to connect with other trainers and sharing ideas.

Can't wait for the next! Thanks guys 🐶

If Carlsberg did Dog Training Courses

I’ve been a member with the Dog Trainer School for just over a year now and did my second course with them yesterday. I can’t recommend them enough. Their courses are highly informative and Lee makes its so relaxing and fun with no judgement. Both Helen and Lee are so welcoming and take time to get to know you, listen, chat and offer advice. I’ve learnt so much from their courses and will most definitely be attending more.

I cannot recommend the Dog Trainer school highly enough . Helen & Lee have such a wealth of knowledge between them . They have created a fun , friendly & supportive place to learn & are absolutely lovely people . They’re both passionate about sharing their expertise & empowering other dog trainers to succeed which is sooo refreshing !! As a more newly qualified dog trainer , their support & encouragement has been invaluable & it’s really helped me with my confidence too . I’ve attended their loose lead walking course , workshops workshop , assistance dog training & practical skills day - all which I’d highly recommend !!

Practical skills day

I attended the practical skills day today at the Lake (what a stunning place!)
The first things you see is a lovely warm smile and friendly greeting from Helen & Lee and instantly making you feel relaxed.

I learnt so much again today! Gaining so many different ideas and new motivation to try things to take into classes.

You won't ever be disappointed by doing one of the Dog Trainer School courses! Highly recommended!

And thank you for a truly brilliant day - please let there be more!

Helen & Lee are amazing at what they do. The Dog Trainer school has a family feel about it and they make you feel so welcome, whether you have been training dogs for 5 minutes or 25 years. Highly recommended.

Friendly, great schooling, excellent mentors

I've just done the Assistance Dog Training course with The Dog Trainer School. I'm also a mentee with them. Lee and Helen are excellent!

They make you feel genuinely welcome and nothing is a problem for them.

Their guidance and schooling is brilliant! I would thoroughly recommend you join them if you haven't already to begin/enhance your training journey!

The best CPD and membership organisation in the industry

I've been in the industry for 15 years and The Dog Trainer School are by far the most welcoming, helpful and reasonably priced CPD organisation I've ever been a part of. The best is they are warm, approachable and relatable. Not to mention super responsive on any issues. Sign up today! You will not regret it.

mentorship

I enrolled in the one year mentorship with Lee and Helen a year ago, as I had been struggling to develop my dog behaviour/ training business.
They really helped me defining priorities and set up objectives that were right for me, even if it wasn't the most obvious route to go down to. I probably would have never even imagined going back to being employed on the side of my business, but couldn't happier about and it was the right solution for me. Helen and Lee have been extremely supporting and encouraged me to do what I felt like I needed to do, instead of pushing towards unachievable objectives, and I can t thank them enough for that.

If you're struggling with your business, or just want to define new angles of work, I recommend you do that mentorship, it was an amazing decision I made.

Well worth it!

A great membership for dog trainers for a really reasonable price! Lots of content and handouts for clients available and a lovely community of like-minded people. Being a dog trainer can be quite lonely when you’re out working on your own each day, having a community like TDTS is absolutely appreciated!

Fab support for Trainers

The Dog Trainer School has been amazing,I joined early when it first came around, the resources as a trainer have been incredible and made me feel more confident when holding my own classes and 121 training sessions, the Facebook group is so supportive and I can ask questions without the worry of being judged, I’ve done a couple of the train with Lee sessions and they were brilliant, can’t wait to do more. Lee and Helen are fab and are so passionate about helping other trainers, so glad I found them 😊

The Dog Trainer School membership ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Dog Trainer School membership… firstly what an absolute bargain. I’ve been a dog trainer for a while now and I have to say this is the first membership of its type I’ve experienced! I wish it had been around years ago when I started out. That being said it is so helpful now too and I’m gaining so much from it. There are regular expert chats put out and (looking forward to more). Just a whole lotta quality for such a good price. It’s creating a safe space for trainers to talk, and reach out for advice. The communication from Lee and Helen is second to none and I’m excited to see what else they have up their sleeves for us members 🙂.

I have also attended TDTS Looselead for Professionals course, such a great one day course bursting with information whether you’re just getting started or looking for a refresher and top up to learning!

5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dog Trainers Do Not Overlook!…

Excellent advice and tips learned on the loose lead walking course, would highly recommend to any dog trainer. The membership also has great perks and is particularly valuable, it specifically gives those of us relatively new to the industry some amazing resources to get things rolling.

I attended an in-person TDR course that was being hoisted by the dog trainer school and wow what a lovely day. The course itself was amazing. The dog trainer school really were very welcoming, and great fun, there was some extra touches, like making sure we had plenty of refreshments, lunch etc. I certainly will be going back for me courses even though it was a long journey, was well worth it. Highly recommend them. Well done guys, I have been to a lot of courses etc but yours certainly stands out from the crowd.

Awesome day of learning

Awesome day with Lee &Helen as hosts for Jackie from Talking Rally, as a qualified trainer I always want to continue learning and be able to add skillsets to my clients experiences.
The TD rally course was professionally but interestingly ran with a lot of fun and laughter which sealed the learning.
The venue Lee and Helen chose was amazing with all the facilities you could want and a delicious lunch provided too.
Lee and Helen made sure the day ran smoothly and that everyone was well taken care of and we got the very most out of the workshop.
Hope to see you all on another workshop.
