Puppy Classes in Chislehurst

Aspire Dog Training runs small-group outdoor puppy classes at High Elms Country Park on Saturday mornings — a unique setting for enrichment-led, force-free puppy training in a natural outdoor environment.

I'm John, an ABTC registered Animal Training Instructor (ATI). These classes are ideal for puppies and owners who want to learn real-life skills in a real-life setting. owners who want to understand their puppy, not just manage them.

What We Cover

Each week builds on the last, covering the foundations every puppy needs:

  • Controlled socialisation in a calm, supportive environment

  • Settle and impulse control

  • Sit, down, stay, leave it and drop

  • Early loose lead walking and recall groundwork

  • Enrichment activities including find it, retrieve games and tug

  • Puppy biting, jumping up and common puppy challenges

Why These Classes Are Different

Class sizes are kept small because puppies learn better when they're not overwhelmed. The environment is calm and low-pressure. And rather than just teaching commands, we focus on why behaviours happen and what your puppy actually needs — because when those needs are met, training becomes something your puppy actively enjoys.

Who These Classes Are For

Puppies who are excitable, sensitive, easily distracted or simply brand new — and owners who want to get it right from the start. If you're not sure whether your puppy is ready, just get in touch before booking.
