Hilary Burbidge Dog Training

About

This North London dog training service specializes in positive reinforcement methods and force-free techniques to address behavioral challenges for dogs of all ages and experience levels. The trainer offers comprehensive programs including puppy socialization, leash walking, recall training, impulse control, and general obedience skills. Services extend across Hampstead, Highgate, Muswell Hill, Finchley, Barnet, Enfield, and surrounding areas in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Training options include individual sessions conducted at clients' homes or private outdoor spaces, as well as small group classes held on secure private grounds with a maximum of six dogs per session. The business provides specialized workshops covering specific issues like high prey drive and countryside desensitization clinics to help dogs adapt to livestock and wildlife encounters. Initial assessment sessions lasting 60-90 minutes allow the trainer to evaluate each dog's routine, lifestyle, and specific training requirements. The service caters to both companion pets and working dogs, offering customized homework assignments and ongoing phone support between sessions. Group puppy classes run on Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings, while regular group sessions are scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays at private training facilities in Barnet and Hertfordshire.
