Doodley Dogs - Storrington

Doodley Dogs - Dog Behaviourists in Storrington, West Sussex

At Doodley Dogs we have a vast range of experience, from bad manners or exciteable behaviour to extreme fear aggression and everything in between!

Our facilities enable us to offer intensive rehabilitation days as well as private hour long consultations.

We have a large 6 acre secure paddock and two state of the art indoor centres.

We run regular clinics, training classes are off lead socialisation walks.

We are open 7.00am until 6:30pm Monday to Friday and 9.00am until 5.00pm Saturday.

The residential courses run from 7.30am until 6.30pm Monday to Friday. Your dog will spend all day at the Doodley Dogs centre and surrounding environments as appropriate.

Your dog will be collected by the owner at the end of each day and returned to the centre the following day.

We have found it is better for the dog to be returned home in the evening as dogs are context sensitive and need to continue the skills they have learned in their home environment.... residential facilities that "fix" dogs on their own premises often find them returned for further training and further expense as they have not had a chance to improve their behaviour at home.

Anti-Social Behaviour: Resolve anti-social behaviour including issues such as, Excessive barking - Digging - Pulling on the Lead - Jumping up - OTT behaviour

Seperation Anxiety: This issue is becoming more common and often results in stress and guilt from the human and panic from the canine. I can work with you to make your dog feel relaxed and confident with being alone and you more confident and able to walk away.

Doodley Dogs - Dog Day Care in Storrington, West Sussex

Here at Doodley Dogs we place a strong emphasis on dogs as pack animals. It's nature's way.

Dogs are naturally sociable animals, and in the wild will usually form packs.

There are all sorts of negative connotations of 'packs of dogs' as dangerous and noisy, but they are in fact relatively calm and social structures.

It's healthy for your dog to interact with his own kind and it's important for every dog to have the opportunity to "speak dog" regularly.

Most doggy clients integrate nicely into our carefully organised packs, and play happily all day. You'll find that after a day with us your dog will have had so much fun that he'll be so tired out he won't even need to be walked.
