At Ru's Dog School, we believe that training and support are essential at every stage of your dog's life. While many might assume that only new puppy owners require guidance, we recognise that challenges can arise unexpectedly throughout a dog's life. Behavioural struggles can emerge seemingly out of nowhere, sometimes causing strain on the bond between a pet and its owner.
Our Ethos: Understanding the "Why"
Our approach to helping dog owners is rooted in understanding the why behind a behaviour rather than merely attempting to fix the problem. We focus on the underlying causes of behaviours to provide long-lasting solutions and rebuild strong, loving relationships between dogs and their families.

Key Principles of Our Training
Ensuring Success from the Start
Welcoming a new puppy into your home is a joyous occasion, and we are here to help set the stage for a successful and harmonious relationship. Our training programs are designed to meet the unique needs of each dog and family, ensuring that every pup is a well-adjusted and cherished member of the household.
