Dog Training In Bournemouth

Training That Fits Real Life

Foundation K9 offers one-to-one dog training in Bournemouth, focused on building calm, reliable behaviour through clear structure and consistent training.

I work with everyday dogs and owners who want practical guidance, not quick fixes or gimmicks.

I help with:

-> Loose lead walking and pulling

-> Recall and engagement

-> Over-arousal and lack of calm

-> Reactivity around dogs or people

-> General obedience and structure at home

Clear Training. No Gimmicks.

Training is delivered through blocks of one-to-one sessions, tailored to the dog.

Progress comes from structured focused sessions and consistency between appointments, rather than long, sporadic training.

Training locally in Bournemouth means working around real-life distractions, busy walking routes, green space, and everyday routines.

Sessions are planned to suit both the dog and the local environment, rather than relying on artificial setups forever.

The Dogs and Owners I Work With

People Willing To Learn

Good training usually involves changing a few things at home, not just what happens in sessions. Owners who are open to learning new skills and adjusting what needs adjusting tend to see the best results. You don’t need to be perfect, but you do need to be willing to engage with the process.

Those Who Are Commited

Some things improve quickly, others take time. I don’t teach box-ticking exercises or quick fixes. Training works best when owners are interested in understanding their dog and building consistency, rather than just getting through a session and hoping for the best.

Real Life Training

I won’t rush dogs into situations they’re not ready for, but I also won’t avoid real-world challenges forever. Training is about preparing dogs for everyday life, not wrapping them in cotton wool. If you’re looking for calm, structured progress that leads to real-world reliability, this approach tends to work well.

If this sounds like the kind of training you’re looking for, the best next step is to get in touch and we can talk things through and answer any questions you have.
