Howl School For Dogs

Dog Training & Behaviour Services

Modern, science-based, kindness-led support for every dog and every guardian. In person across East Sussex and Kent, or worldwide online.

At Howl School for Dogs, all training and behaviour support is welfare-focused and rooted in kindness. Whether you have a new puppy or a dog who has been struggling for years, the approach is the same: understanding what your dog needs, building their confidence, and giving you the tools to keep making progress long after our work together ends.

As a qualified teacher, I adapt how I work to suit your learning style. If you have ADHD, dyslexia, or just prefer things explained a certain way, let me know and I will work around you. Everyone learns differently and that matters here.

Sessions are available in person across St Leonards, Hastings, and the surrounding areas of East Sussex and Kent. Remote sessions are open to clients anywhere in the world.

This package pairs Kerry's 1-2-1 training with input from Associate Clinical Behaviourist Jess Hyams. Between us, we bring a deep understanding of both the behavioural and clinical side of what your dog is going through, and what to do about it.
