Borstal Barkers Dog Club
Borstal Barkers Dog Club in Rochester, Kent, uses positive, reward-based training, with each one-hour session planned around the dogs in it. Courses suit young puppies just starting out as well as older dogs, covering loose lead walking, recall and other everyday skills, and there are one to one sessions, home visits and behaviour consultations for problems such as dog-to-dog aggression and separation anxiety. Training is force-free, based on rewards rather than corrections.
