Welcome to Paws-Up! Dog Services
At Paws-Up! Dog Services, everything we do is built around understanding dogs as individuals — how they think, feel, and communicate — and helping you build a stronger, more connected relationship with your dog.
Under the guidance of a qualified Canine Behaviourist, Paws-Up! offers two simple ways to support you and your dog’s journey:
Enclosed Dog Paddock Hire
For those who simply want a safe, private space to enjoy with their dog, our enclosed dog paddock offers the perfect solution.
Ideal for dogs who need space away from distractions — whether for training, decompression, or just a good run — the paddock gives you peace of mind in a fully secure environment.
Book your session and give your dog the freedom they deserve.
The Paws-Up Behaviour & Training
Led by a qualified Canine Behaviourist, Paws-Up Behaviour & Training is designed to help you truly understand your dog and build a calmer, more connected relationship.
Whether you're working through challenges like reactivity or overexcitement, or simply want to deepen your bond, there are a range of support options to suit you — from full 1:1 coaching to our online Academy.
Inside the Academy, you’ll find practical, real-life training, along with a supportive community of like-minded dog owners, group opportunities such as guided walks, and a wealth of knowledge to help you feel confident every step of the way.
