what we do

At Nutter Dogs, we offer a range of dog training services in and around Burnley, Pendle & West Craven in East Lancashire. All of our training is positive-based, meaning we focus on setting dogs up to make good choices – which we can then reward, building habits that will last a lifetime.

We offer 1 to 1 training for those with specific training and behaviour needs, taking place in your home or in the local area as required. We commonly help with first time puppy owners and issues such as pulling on lead, stealing from counters, jumping up, poor recall and reactivity toward other dogs. We always work with consideration for the dog’s emotional state, addressing the root cause of the behaviours – not just the symptoms!

Our dog training classes include puppy training (for dogs younger than 20 weeks), focusing on starting your puppy off on the right foot. This class introduces a variety of skills where your puppy will learn how to perform basic obedience tasks, and learn to love to to work with you.

We also offer our Bronze Award classes (for dogs older than 20 weeks) which advance on our puppy training course as well as being a great introduction for dog owners to teach their dogs basic training skills. Our Bronze class is the foundation Nutter Dogs course and will set you and your dog up for our progression options, such as our hugely popular Dog Club or our sport & trick classes.

Does your dog like to live life in the fast lane, or have energy to spare? Our agility classes are available for those currently competing, or those looking to give dog agility a try. Our classes are all taught to competition standard, using Kennel Club standard agility equipment.

We offer mantrailing sessions throughout the year, teaching your dog to use their innate, powerful sense of smell to track down a “missing person!”

Last but certainly not least we offer trick training classes and workshops both, to develop that all-important bond with your dog and challenge their creative thinking.

We also have several free social groups for you and your dog to take part in! You can join Nutter Dogs Canine Community to find out more about our training, connect with like-minded individuals and get first dibs on any sessions or courses. We also offer social walks and hikes from time to time in Burnley & Pendle. We would also love to have more people try out canicross (running with your dog) via our fun and friendly Canicross Nutters – Burnley & Pendle social group.
