What we offer

Support shaped around your dog

Every dog arrives with a different story. Pick the starting point that fits yours — we'll take it from there with a plan you can actually follow at home.

Behavioural consultations

An in-depth assessment of the behaviour that's worrying you, with a clear written plan to move forward.

1-to-1 training

Private sessions built entirely around your dog, your goals and your pace — no group distractions.

Puppy consultations

Start right: socialisation, toilet training, biting, sleep and the early manners that set a puppy up for life.

Life-skills preparation

The everyday skills that make life easier — settling, handling, vet visits and staying calm in busy places.

Home-based training

We come to you, where the real behaviour happens and where lasting habits are actually made.

Reactivity support

Practical, kind help for dogs that bark, lunge or struggle around other dogs, people or traffic.

Lead-walking issues

End the pulling. Relaxed, loose-lead walking that's enjoyable for both ends of the lead.

General behaviour support

Recall, jumping up, mouthing, guarding and all the smaller things in between.

Young, adult & older dog help

Whatever the age, it's never too early or too late to make real progress together.

Meet your trainer — Luke

Experienced with high-drive dogs and family companions.

Westwood K9 Academy is born from my passion for working with dogs. I have spent the last 6 years working closely with high-drive working breeds, and now extending this to everyday family dogs. The core belief is that every dog can learn when the training is clear, structured and consistent, and when the owner is genuinely invested at every step.

No gimmicks or lifelong dependency. Our aim is to give you the tools to maintain the training and build a calm, confident dog, as well as a relationship you can both trust.

Working-breed experience Balanced training Home & real-world environments

The Westwood way

Effective methods. Real-world results.

Good training isn't about dominance or quick fixes. It's about understanding why your dog behaves the way they do, and providing you both with the knowledge and tools to solve it.

We come to you

Behaviour happens at home and on your usual walks. That's exactly where we work, so the training sticks in real life — not just in a hall.

Balanced, structured training

Fair, practical training that rewards the right choices, sets clear boundaries and helps your dog understand what is expected in real-world situations.

A plan you can follow

You'll leave every session knowing exactly what to do next, with clear, jargon-free steps and ongoing support between visits.
