How to pay less
- Book a full puppy training course, which costs less per session than drop-in classes
- Choose a group puppy class for basics and add private sessions only for problems
- Practise little and often at home so each paid session goes further
Before you book
- Ask your vet when your puppy can safely mix with other dogs before booking classes
- Check the puppy trainer uses reward-based methods and has insurance
- Check your puppy is microchipped and registered in your name before puppy training starts
- Ask how many puppies are in each class and how they are matched by size
Puppy Training cost: questions people ask
£25–£70 per session, with about £40 typical. A group class in a course costs the least; private one-to-one sessions at home in London cost the most.
Most group courses run five or six weekly sessions of about an hour. Private sessions are booked as needed.
Home training starts on day one. Group classes usually follow your vet's advice on vaccinations, and many trainers run sessions for puppies still finishing their jabs.
A group class is good value for basics and socialisation. Private sessions suit specific problems like biting or toilet training.
Adult training, behaviourist help for serious problems and day care are priced separately.
