Sick of your dog dragging you down the street?  Tired of having an aching arm?
It is possible to teach your dog to walk nicely on the lead and A Different Dog's
​Loose-Lead Walking Masterclass Programme can show you how! 

It can be frustrating, annoying and downright painful to have a dog which pulls on the lead, to the extent that many people dread taking their dog out or resort to using unpleasant equipment to keep their dog 'under control'.  

​The Lead Walking Masterclass is a specialist programme consisting of three practical sessions, as well as exclusive online content, focused on building the skills that you and your dog need to master the art of walking nicely on the lead.  All of this is done by using through activities and games which are teach your dog in a kind and effective way.

To get you off to a flying start, there is guidance before you even come for the your first practical session with our online pre-masterclass activities!  The online content is in the form of videos and handy print-out tip sheets.  This means that you can access the activities at home, take in the information at your leisure and do the activities with your dog at a convenient time for you.  

​After you have had a week or two to try work on these simple activities, you will be able to put it all into practise under our expert guidance at the three, hour-long practical sessions.  The first of these classes is based indoors.  At this class, you will develop your dog's polite lead walking skills in a safe, indoor environment. In the second session, we will add further challenge and distractions before heading outside for the third session where we can 'proof' your dog's new skills in a real-life environment.

​Classes are kept very small in size (maximum of 4 dogs) so that you can get the individual, personalised help that you need with your dog.
