What to Look for in a Dog Trainer in London
Training a dog in London often comes with specific challenges — busy streets, crowded parks, close neighbours, and less off-lead space than more rural areas. A good London trainer will be experienced with urban-specific issues like lead reactivity, noise sensitivity, and building recall in spaces without much off-lead freedom. Look for recognised accreditation (such as ABTC or IMDT registration), confirm they use positive, reward-based methods, and check whether they offer group classes, 1-2-1 sessions, or in-home training.
How Much Does Dog Training Cost in London?
London training prices tend to sit at the higher end of the UK range, reflecting the cost of living and travel time between clients. Group puppy classes typically range from £15–£30 per session, while 1-2-1 training or behavioural sessions often run £50–£100+ per hour, with Central London and Zone 1–2 areas usually at the top of that range.

PetShrink - Pet Behaviourist & Dog Trainer
56 Maidstone Rd, London N11 2JR
07471 821696
A pet whose behaviour has become difficult is often unhappy, and a nightmare, rather than a joy to own. Although vets are great at sorting out physical problems, only a trained pet behaviour counsellor can help find out why your pet is behaving badly and develop a solution you are happy with, so that you end up with a well-behaved, polite, valued, and loved addition to the family.
Problem behaviour rarely gets better of its own accord, and usually gets worse. So it’s best to contact a pet behaviour counsellor as soon as possible after the behaviour develops.
One of the main reasons why pets are re-homed or destroyed is because of behaviour issues. It is my aim to reduce that number, and help you to develop a harmonious relationship between you and your pet.
