Dog Training Plymouth

Dog Training

At Pawsonal, we specialise in ethical, positive dog training designed to support both you and your dog. Using reward based methods, we focus on building confidence, communication, and a strong relationship without the use of force, punishment, or intimidation.

Training is tailored to suit your dog’s individual needs, personality, and stage of life. Whether you are starting with a young puppy, working through specific challenges, or simply looking to improve everyday behaviour, each session is designed to be supportive, clear, and effective.

All training prioritises your dog’s wellbeing, emotional safety, and enjoyment, creating long lasting results built on trust rather than control.

Training Philosophy

At Pawsonal, training is built on understanding, patience, and positive reinforcement. Dogs are never too old to learn, and every dog deserves training that supports their emotional wellbeing as well as their behaviour.

By focusing on ethical methods, we help dogs feel safe, confident, and motivated to learn, creating results that last beyond the training session.
