| Alpha Dog Training is based in Fife, Scotland. We have been in business since 1998, when our Instructor Debbie Blyth qualified with the British Institute of Professional Dog Trainers.
CLASSES
Our dog training classes incorporate the Kennel Club’s “Good Citizen Dog Scheme” at all levels (Puppy Foundation, Bronze, Silver & Gold). They’re good fun, non-competitive and a great way for you and your dog to learn & make new friends.
Classes are kept small, so that we can take the time to get to know individual owners and their dogs. All dog training is motivational and reward-based (either by praise, food or your dog’s favourite toy – whichever works best), and we always have extra “supplies” on hand in case owners forget to bring something.
Our classes are progressive (i.e. they get more difficult as the weeks go on), and are in blocks of 6 weeks, costing £45. They last for an hour a week. We have 3 classes on Saturdays in Dunfermline (10am, 11.30am and 1pm), one class in Cupar on Thursdays at 7.30pm, one in Culross on Fridays at 7.30pm, and - depending on demand - one in Kinross on Saturdays at 7.30pm.
Please contact us for more details on the classes, or to reserve a space on the next one. You'll also see details of vacancies for each level of training on the "contact us" page - it is updated daily.
ONE-TO-ONE TRAINING
For owners who have a specific problem with their dog, or who simply can’t (or don’t want to) come to a class, we can also offer one-to-one dog training in your own home if you live within our "catchment area". Please contact us for more information.
DOG WALKING
We can occasionally offer this service - due to time constraints it's not something we can do on a daily basis, but if you're stuck, contact us and we'll help if we can.
THEY DID IT!!!!
Our Kinross, Cupar and Culross classes had their exams recently.
A huge well done to the following, who completed their Bronze level in Kinross on Saturday 19 July:
Rita, Zito, Misty, Otis and Rosie. I am really proud of this class - everyone worked incredibly hard and the standard achieved at the end of the course was one of the best we've ever had for a Bronze level.
Well done to the following too, who all graduated from the Silver level in Cupar on Thursday 24 July:
Eilidh, Moss, Buffy, Daisy, Custard, Sky & Lennox. Most of these brave souls are going on to do the Gold level in October. We have to give a special mention to Custard's owner Liz ... despite being 9 months pregnant (due date 25 July - the day after we did the exam) she managed the course and the exam with no problem at all. We'll let you know as soon as we hear about the baby. Good luck Liz!
A huge well done to the following, who completed their Bronze level in Culross on Friday 1 August:
Zak, Rascal, Skye & her brother Storm, Molly, wee Skye, Bingo and Tess.
