Dog Training Services
Positive, practical dog training for real life.
Whether you're starting from scratch with a new puppy, struggling with one particular skill, or would prefer individual support tailored to your dog, The Mojo Method offers friendly, reward-based training designed to help you and your dog understand each other better.
Group Training Classes
Learn together. Practise in the real world. Build skills that last.
My small, friendly group classes are held at The Rec in Belbroughton, with limited spaces so you and your dog get plenty of individual support.
All classes use positive, reward-based training and are designed around skills that make everyday life with your dog easier and more enjoyable.
Puppy Foundations
A 6-week course designed to help you build the foundations for a calm, confident and well-rounded dog from the very beginning.
Rather than simply teaching your puppy a list of commands, we'll focus on the skills they'll actually need for everyday life.
Over the six weeks, we'll work on:
🐾 Socialisation & building confidence
🦮 The beginnings of loose lead walking
🚀 Recall foundations
👀 Focus & engagement
✋ Handling, grooming & vet preparation
🛏️ Bed, settle & learning to switch off
⏳ Sit, wait & impulse control
👋 Calm, polite greetings
🧠 Understanding how your puppy learns
💛 Building a positive relationship from day one
6 weeks • Maximum 8 puppies
Courses run throughout the year from September–July.
Ideal for puppies 8 weeks — 6 months.
Specialist Training Workshops
Sometimes you don't need a general training class.
You need help with the one thing that's driving you mad!
My Specialist Workshops spend six weeks focusing on one specific everyday skill, giving you time to learn it properly, practise it around real-life distractions and build genuine progress.
With a maximum of 6 dogs per workshop, you'll receive plenty of individual guidance along the way.
Stop The Pulling
A 6-week Loose Lead Walking Workshop
Helping your dog choose to walk with you — not drag you off your feet.
We'll build loose lead walking step-by-step, progressing from the foundations through to maintaining focus and walking calmly around real-world distractions.
Runs September & February
Polite Paws
A 6-week Manners Workshop
For dogs who love life perhaps a little too enthusiastically!
We'll work on calmer greetings, keeping four paws on the floor, impulse control, focus around people and dogs, settling and making better choices when excitement kicks in.
Runs November & April
Come Back Every Time
A 6-week Recall Workshop
Turn “COME BACK!” into a cue your dog actually wants to respond to.
We'll build a strong recall from the foundations up, teaching your dog that coming back to you is always worthwhile before gradually adding distance, freedom and real-life distractions.
Runs January & June
📍 All group classes are held at The Rec, Belbroughton, Worcestershire.

Prefer 1:1 Training?
Personalised training for you and your dog in a 1:1 setting.
If group classes aren't right for you, or there's something specific you'd like help with, I also offer private 1:1 training sessions.
We'll work at your dog's pace and focus specifically on the areas that are making everyday life difficult.
I can help with things including:
Loose lead walking
Recall
Focus around distractions
Jumping up & overexcitement
Settling & calmness
Puppy training
Adolescent training
Confidence building
Impulse control
Everyday manners & life skills
Sessions use positive reinforcement and clicker training to help you understand why your dog is doing what they're doing, what you'd like them to do instead, and how to teach it clearly.
Puppy Foundations
Give your puppy the calm, confident start they deserve!
These sessions cover everything from toilet training and socialisation to building focus and confidence in new environments. You’ll learn how to create positive early experiences, introduce boundaries gently, and prevent common problem behaviours before they start. Together, we’ll set you and your puppy up for long-term success — building trust, understanding, and a bond based on calm communication from day one.
Ideal for puppies under 6 months.
Things I can help with that you might be struggling with:
Toilet training and crate training
Nipping and mouthing
Jumping up
Settling and calmness
Confidence around new people, dogs, and noises
Basic cues like sit, stay, come
Handling, grooming, and vet visits
Preventing problem behaviours before they start
Life Skills (Obedience)
Build everyday harmony through calm communication
Think of this as your dog’s life skills toolkit — the foundations for living calmly and confidently together. From loose lead walking to reliable recall and polite greetings, these sessions focus on real-life behaviours that make daily life easier and more enjoyable.
I don’t call it “obedience training” — because it’s not about control. It’s about teamwork, understanding, and clear communication between you and your dog.
Things I can help with if you’re looking to build a calmer, more responsive dog:
Reliable recall
Loose lead walking
Calm greetings and impulse control
Settling at home or in public
Focus and engagement around distractions
Confidence and resilience
Building a stronger bond and two-way communication
Adolescent Reset
Guide your dog through their teenage stage with calm and confidence!
These sessions are designed to help you navigate that transition with understanding and patience. We’ll work on rebuilding focus, consistency, and calmness, even around distractions, while strengthening your communication and bond. You’ll learn how to set clear boundaries, reinforce positive habits, and support your dog as they test their independence — without frustration or conflict.
Things I can help with that often crop up during the “teenage” phase:
Selective hearing / ignoring recall
Pulling on the lead
Jumping up or overexcitement
Impulse control and frustration
Rebuilding focus around distractions
Boundary setting and consistency
Confidence dips or reactivity that appears “out of nowhere”
