Why we've added dog training to Borders Boarding
After years of looking after your dogs in our home — boarding the older Labradors, daycaring the spaniel pups, picking up the same questions from owners again and again about pulling, recall and reactivity — we knew it was time to offer something more.
So many of the issues we see can be solved with the right training, taught in the right order. The problem? Good in-person dog training in the Scottish Borders is hard to come by, and it isn't cheap. One-to-one sessions can run into the hundreds of pounds, and group classes don't always tackle the specific issue you're stuck on.
That's why we've partnered with the Will Atherton Academy — the UK's most respected online dog training platform, trusted by over a million owners worldwide and featured in the BBC, The Telegraph and the Daily Mirror. Their courses give you a structured, step-by-step system you can work through from your sofa in Selkirk, your kitchen in Kelso, or your croft in the Cheviots. At your own pace. For a fraction of the cost of in-person training.
