Puppy advice
At Canine Behaviour Guernsey, we want you to be as prepared as you can be before bringing a new puppy home. We are happy to advise on what breed will best suit your family, how your home is set-up for your new arrival and what you can do before he or she arrives to give him the best possible start in life.
- Home-visits are recommended, one-hour visit, £45
One-to-one puppy training
We offer single puppy sessions as well as puppy training packages. All sessions involve owner participation. These sessions will assist with teaching basic commands as well as helping you with common puppy issues such as play-biting, jumping up and pulling on the lead. Owners will also be advised to also take their puppies to a puppy class to allow their dog to socialise.
- Puppy training session, one hour, £55
- Puppy package, four one-hour sessions, £200
- Puppy package, six one-hour sessions, £270
- Puppy package, eight one-hour sessions, £340
Puppy & Beginner Life Skills Classes
Canine Behaviour Guernsey is also pleased to offer puppy and beginner training classes. Our classes centre around life skills learning, using positive reinforcement techniques.

Why Does My Puppy..? Seminar
The Why Does My Puppy..? Seminar takes place around three times a year. It is a two-hour interactive presentation and talk about why puppies behave the way they do and what you can do to help. It is a puppy-free event designed to allow owners the chance to sit down, concentrate and ask questions. You will learn more about the canine brain, their physiology and how the world works for them. Being able to understand your puppy is key to building a successful relationship and bond with them. Please get in touch to register your interest for the next seminar date.
The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.
