Our service extends to disabled clients wishing to train their dogs to assist or to become the perfect companion.

Based in Newcastle our dog training service is tailored to you. Jigsaw Dogs will visit you and work with you and your dog at home.

Some dogs (and handlers) find this approach much more relaxing and less threatening than a class, and progress is often much quicker on a one-to-one basis.

By visiting you at the home, we can fully appreciate the nature of the challenge you may be facing with no conflicting distractions to you or your dog. With in home consultations training generally progresses quicker, as dogs feel less threatened and more relaxed. This goes for the owners too!

We work not just with the dog, but hand-in-hand with you, their handler. We guide you to working directly with your dog, so your dog responds to you. We strive to work on creating the perfect partnership with your dog.
