Training With Us

Dingle Doggo training programmes are designed to give dogs and their humans clear foundations, practical skills, and the confidence to succeed in everyday life. Each programme focuses on calm, reward-based training that builds understanding.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or refining existing behaviours, our sessions are structured, supportive, and tailored to real-world situations. We focus on communication, engagement, and trust, helping you and your dog develop skills that last well beyond the course itself.

Sometimes, a group environment isn’t the right fit for every
dog—or every owner. Check out our private 1-to-1 sessions which provide a bespoke coaching experience designed around your specific goals.

Loose Lead Walking 1-1

Are your walks being spoiled by your persistent puller? Our Loose Lead programme is designed to help your dog walk calmly by your side, making walks enjoyable for you both. We will teach you and your dog the skills you need to end the frustration at both ends of the lead – enhancing your bond as we go.

We usually begin in the comfort of your home, creating a strong foundation to then progress outside for you and your dog to practice your new skills in the real world.

This programme is specifically for loose lead walking and does not cover other behaviours, including reactivity. Each dog and owner pair progresses at their own pace, with guidance and support tailored to your needs.

Master the Walk (Foundational Skills)

An intensive, small group workshop 

Are you fed up of dreading the next outing with your dog? Walking your dog should be the best part of your day, not a source of stress. When communication breaks down, frustration builds at both ends of the lead—leaving you exhausted and your dog overstimulated.

This intensive workshop is designed to hit the reset button. With a maximum of four participants, you’ll receive personalized coaching to bridge the gap between "chaos" and "connection."

The Three Pillars of a Great Walk

  • 1. Focus & Engagement We’ll teach you how to win your dog’s attention before the lead even goes on. Learn to be the center of their world, even in a distracting environment.

  • 2. Loose Lead Foundations Understand the "why" behind the pulling and master the mechanics of a relaxed, slack-lead walk. No more tug-of-war.

  • 3. The Bulletproof Recall Start building a "magnet-like" return. We look at the foundational mechanics of a reliable recall so you can gain the confidence to let them explore.

Your Path to Success

This workshop provides the essential "Blueprint." Because we keep the group small, we can focus on your specific struggles and fine-tune your handling skills.

What Happens Next?

Once you’ve mastered these foundations, you’ll be eligible to join our Progression Skills Class. These classes are where the magic happens, as we expand your new learned foundational skills and cement them ready for the real world for you to enjoy walks with your doggo again.

 

Please note that classes take place outside, we ask that you dress appropriately for the elements.

Rescue Reset 1-1

Additional sessions available at €45 per session

Bringing a rescue dog into your life is incredibly rewarding, but it can also come with unique challenges. Our Rescue Reset Program is designed to give you the guidance, support, and tools you need to set your dog up for success.

To get started, you can book a free 15-minute discovery call, where we’ll discuss your rescue dog’s history, needs, and what you’d like support with. Based on this, we’ll recommend the most suitable package for you. Whether you’ve just welcomed a new rescue and want help with settling them in, building a trusting relationship, and starting basic training – or you’ve had your rescue for a while and would like guidance on specific issues – we’re here to help. 

Each plan is tailored to your dog’s pace and your priorities, giving you practical, compassionate support every step of the way.

The Connection Club: Progression & Play

Keep the Spark Alive with Flexible, Fun-Focused Training

The secret to an enjoyable walk isn't control—it's connection. When your dog thinks you are the most fun, exciting, and rewarding part of their day, pulling on the lead and ignoring your call becomes a thing of the past.

Our Progression Classes are designed to take your foundational skills and turn them into games. We’ve ditched the "drill sergeant" approach and replaced it with engaging exercises that make your dog want to choose you every single time.

What the Fun Looks Like:

  • Engagement Games: We’ll use play, movement, and focus games to turn you into a "magnet" for your dog’s attention.

  • Long-Line Adventures: Using long lines, we’ll play "Recall Racing" and distance games. It’s all about the thrill of the return, giving your dog freedom while keeping them safely connected to you.

  • Real-World "Level Ups": We turn loose-lead walking into a dance rather than a drag. You’ll learn how to keep the walk light, fun, and frustration-free.

  • Cementing the Bond: These sessions aren't just about "fixing" behaviors—they are about enjoying your dog’s company and building a partnership that lasts.

Why You’ll Love the "Club" Format:

Training should fit your life, not stress you out. That’s why these classes are Pay-As-You-Go:

  • Flexible Booking: No rigid blocks. Book a session whenever you feel like you and your dog need a boost.

  • Small & Supportive: With a maximum of 4 teams, the atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, and full of success.

  • Keep Coming Back: Many of our teams join us week after week to keep their skills sharp and their bond strong.

You must have completed our Master the Walk Foundation class to book the Connection Club sessions.
