"I fully recommend Lancashire Canine Academy"

Logan was introduced to Lancashire Canine Academy by having a house visit. He soon settled down and was eating treats as if he had known Marcia for years.

We booked individual training sessions and Logan did really well. I fully recommend Lancashire Canine Academy for all the needs that your dog might need.

"The 6 week course has helped me grow in confidence"

My puppy, Ginny, and I thoroughly enjoyed our Puppy Foundation training. The 6 week course has helped me grow in confidence with training and given us a brilliant foundation to continue to develop recall. I really couldn't give Lancashire Canine Academy enough praise and I'm looking forward to starting the adolescent classes in the future.
