About Us...
Hotdogs training is run by Wendy Lunn a qualified and
accredited member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers,
and a qualified member of the Animal Care College in animal
behaviour and psychology.

Our policy is to train in small class sizes so that dogs and handlers are given every opportunity to get the most out of each session. The emphasis is very much on socialising dogs with others and demonstrating that training and living with your dog is fun. Our training technique is based on the use of gentle, motivational methods. These methods are enjoyable to use and also enjoyed by the dog, with very high levels of success. Our trainers and assistants are covered by professional indemnity insurance, thus accepting responsibility for what they teach and providing the owner with protection. Veterinary Practices can therefore refer their clients with confidence.  All trainers regularly attend workshops - to view the trainers qualifications click below next to the trainers name.
