WELCOME TO ASKAN-K9 TRAINING!
If you're struggling to correct behavioural issues or simply wish to feed into your dog's drive and performance potential, Askan-K9 Training is here to help.
Our training school originated from IPO (protection dog training), having spent almost a decade training dogs to the title of Schutzhund 3 in the UK and Germany. This consists of high-level training in obedience, ground scent tracking and protection work, which we continue to offer today with an emphasis on other forms of scent tracking and heel work too. Today our Excellence awarded centre is run by our head instructors, Ken and Rosie, passionate trainers that bring their own levels of expertise and a shared love for our four-legged friends!
Ken is a fully trained Canine Hydrotherapist who worked with injured animals for rehabilitation and fitness along with teaching Mantrailing , ground scent tracking and scent work . Rosie is our head instructor teaching scent work via the UK Sniffer Dog method. So whatever you wish to work on, you can be sure you're in safe hands.

WORKSHOPS FOR ANY AGED DOG, FROM PUPPY TO ADULT
The saying might go "you can't teach an old dog new tricks", but at Askan-K9 Training we're firm believers that, no matter the age or current ability of your dog, they have the potential to learn.
Depending on the teaching goals you're aiming for, we offer a range of workshops designed to teach your pet discipline and skill, all whilst offering lots of praise (and cuddles and treats!). Dog training is not a case of one session and done. It requires patience, time and continuity, which is why we work with owners to help them learn training methods that they can practice at home in-between sessions and continue for years to come. Learn more about our courses today.

GIVING YOUR PET THE BEST START
Puppy training for beginners and seasoned dog owners is a great way to establish that initial bond with your new pal whilst encouraging the positive traits we wish to see as your pet grows older.
"You are always made to feel welcome. The training is superb. The dogs love it. The instructors, Ken and Rosie make training days fun and are always willing to help. Nothing is too much trouble for them and any problems and advice you need, they are always there. Would 100% recommend them."
