Meet Your Trainer
Hi I’m Laura — founder of Tiny Tails Dog Training Chester.
I provide gentle, reward-based training that supports both you and your dog every step of the way.
🎥 Watch my quick introduction below.
Starting Febuary 3rd
Not Sure What You Need? Let’s Start With a Conversation
If you’re feeling unsure about your dog’s behaviour, routine, confidence, or wellbeing — you’re not alone.
Many owners contact me not knowing what service they need, only that something doesn’t feel quite right. That’s completely okay.
My approach starts with listening: • What are you struggling with right now?
• What feels overwhelming or confusing?
• What would you like life with your dog to feel like?
You don’t need to have a plan.
You don’t need the “right” language.
You just need to reach out.
Together, we can work out what support is right for you and your dog — at your pace, in your home, without pressure.

What a Training Journey Can Look Like
This sample case study gives you an insight into how a typical 1-to-1 training session with Tiny Tails Dog Training Chester may look.
A 6-month-old Cavapoo and their first-time owners were struggling with lead pulling, jumping up and maintaining focus outdoors. During a tailored in-home session, training focused on positive, calm techniques designed to suit both puppy and household.
By the end of the session, owners had a clear understanding of how to manage behaviours, practise training daily, and support their puppy’s emotional wellbeing. The puppy showed improved engagement, calmer responses, and better focus — setting strong foundations for future training.
This example is illustrative only. Every dog and family is different, and training is always tailored to individual needs.
Building upon basic training to achieve more complex skills and behaviours. Enrichment activities to stimulate your dog's mind and body.
