The Training Side

Four kinds of training. All of it one to one.

Dan works mainly with labs and spaniels and comes from a gun dog and working dog background. A lot of the dogs he trains are family pets, or working breeds living in pet homes.

Every breed is welcome. Sessions last about an hour and it is always just you, your dog and Dan.

A lifetime with dogs

Dan, trainer at Cutthorpe K9

Dogs have shaped Dan's whole life. He grew up around working Labradors and spaniels, and that is where it all started.

He trained his own Labrador up as a gun dog, which led him into coaching other owners. He then spent years in professional training facilities, getting puppies ready for owners who needed something specific from them.

Since then he has trained three American Bulldogs to a top standard of obedience, and he is still adding to what he knows by studying protection work.

Working dog methods, used on family pets. The same clear, consistent training that works in the field works just as well in the park and the front room.

Why Cutthorpe K9

Most of our work comes by word of mouth

One owner tells another, and that is how nearly everyone finds us. These are the things we think earn it.

02

Always one to one

No group classes. The whole hour is about you and your dog.

03

Any breed welcome

Mostly labs and spaniels, but we take every breed. The small ones are often the most stubborn.
