Puppy Training in Folkestone
So, you’ve brought home your first puppy, and nobody told you it would feel like this.
The biting. The jumping. The puddles on the kitchen floor (again). And everyone you know has a different opinion on what you should do about it.
Sound familiar? You might be:
- Covered in tiny teeth marks, wondering if the land shark phase ever ends.
- Sick of mopping up toileting accidents, despite doing everything the internet told you to.
- Deep in the puppy blues, with no idea where to start and a fear of making things worse.
You’re not doing it wrong. You just haven’t had someone show you what to do and how to fit it around real life.

I’ve spent 7.5 years helping thousands of families, and I’ve got three kids and a dog of my own, so I know training has to work in real life, not just on paper.
With my one-to-one puppy training, I’ll coach you and your puppy together, so you’ll:
- Understand why your puppy bites and jumps, and know what to do in the moment.
- Get a toileting routine that fits around your day (yes, even with kids).
- Know what to work on first, so you’re always doing the right thing at the right time.
- Have a calmer, happier puppy who’s learning to listen and fits into family life instead of running it.

- Kickstarter 90 minute session
- 8 one to one training sessions where I coach you and your puppy through the programme

‘We brought home our first ever dog in July this year — a 3-month-old Cockapoo — and with two young kids and busy schedules, we knew we needed proper guidance rather than just “winging it”.
Doherty’s Dog Services came recommended more than once, and it became obvious why. From the first one-to-one sessions, Laura helped us understand things we genuinely wouldn’t have spotted ourselves. She and Dan notice every small behaviour and show you how to turn those tiny moments into good habits before they become problems.
Our puppy’s socialisation was handled brilliantly. Laura made sure she experienced other dogs, busy places, coffee shops, even buses — all calmly and confidently. Now that she’s older, the difference is massive; she’s relaxed, friendly and doesn’t get overwhelmed.
We’ve also continued with the regular group walks. She absolutely lights up when she sees Laura/Dan and the other dogs, and it’s clear she gets a lot out of those sessions beyond just exercise.
Highly recommended — not just for training, but for raising a dog that fits smoothly into family life
