This was our first time today! We travelled down from Newcastle with our two Boxers and it really did not disappoint. The field itself was immaculate, the fields were huge and well kept. The dogs were so excited, they loved the apparatus. There was pooh bags provided so no excuse not to pick up your mess as well as water. Dogs are flat out on the drive home after some much deserved fun. We will travel back again for sure.. Thank you for a fantastic experience
Great! Our dogs love the fields!
My dogs bark at other dogs, this gives them a place they can run, even early in the morning, where they can have fun but not disturb anyone! Always clean and booking and arrival /leaving system works well.
I have been to the fields here on many occasions. My dogs and children have a fantastic time! It's very secure , very well kept and perfect for any dog of any size/breed. I'd highly recommend that anyone uses these fields!
Brilliant place to let your dog run free. Reggie loved the activities.

Fantastic agility session today as always. Sarah is a star at keeping Leia calm and focused on training over obstacles. Highly recommend from puppy class to agility and 1 2 1's. Can't wait for next week 🙌
I have attended Sarah's agility class for just over 2 years. We were complete beginners at the start and I was a bit nervous as to whether it would suit us. But with Sarah's lovely manner and her kind and gentle approach we knew we'd come to the right place. She is endlessly patient and positive and always puts the dog's welfare first. My dog absolutely loved the classes and enjoyed the stimulation of learning new things. Sadly, due to a health issue, we can no longer continue but I can't recommend Sarah highly enough and hope her business continues to thrive.
Excellent training with Sarah, we are more than happy with our experience at puppy class. Sarah is great to work with making the training fun for both you and your puppy. Mabel has come on leaps and bounds since the start of training and we are looking forward to more courses. Would thoroughly recommend 💯
Sarah worked with myself and Murphy in the Puppy group lessons sharing her extensive knowledge in a fun and inspiring way. Murphy came on leaps and bounds in such a short time. We will definitely return for the youth club sessions! 100% recommendation from me!
The best dog trainer around !!!!
Been doing protection work with my two Belgian Malinois's with laurence for about 2 months now.. laurence is really helping bring my oldest mal out of his shell, that had been damaged by a previous trainer.. he's helped us strip him back to basics and rebuild him and his progress so far is amazing.. laurence is a real friendly guy and easy to get on with. Would certainly recommend 👌
Since I have been taking my Dog Luna to Limanov K9 for obedience training with Laurence she has come along leaps and bounds, her manners have improved and she has reacted really well to the training and has learnt a lot of things that we can use in and out of the house. Luna gets so excited when we’re driving upto the training ground she loves seeing Laurence and has benefited so much from the one to ones and has also attended a group session. Exceptional training in a safe environment where she has been able to learn and grow. I can’t recommend Limanov K9 enough, always polite and friendly they even came out to our home when we asked so they could see Lunas behaviours in her home environment. 🐶❤️
Never felt so confident in a dog trainer and I’ve had a few for my Mali she’s a bite risk and will not go near anyone other than her direct household after 4 sessions with Laurence she was walking on the leave and also sat next to him with no muzzle on I thought I would never see the day but LimanovK9 have shown me how to be confident for willow and to help her get over her nervous aggression
I'd highly recommend Laurence. He is so patient and knowledgeable. Very Reasonably priced. So much progress made in just a few sessions so far.

I have completed both the Puppy and Teenager course with Susie and have been amazed at the results from both courses. The fact that both courses have been online has been brilliant and has made taking part each week a very easy process and has meant the much needed training was completed at home without any distractions. Susie is extremely knowledgeable, approachable and makes the training fun and inclusive for everyone. I will be definitely be signing up for future courses as everything we have done to date has helped teach myself, my family and my puppy to have a calm and happy life. I would recommend Susie and her training courses to anyone looking for help with their puppy/dog as they are 5*! In addition for anyone looking for daycare for their dog Susie has a fantastic setting and I feel completely comfortable and happy that my puppy is safe, and extremely well looked after and he always comes home happy and tired after a day at day care.
Susie is so lovely and helpful she is full of knowledge on dog training. I would highly recommend
Online puppy training classes with Susie got our GSD puppy off to a great start in life.
I have been very impressed with the quality of training received at Muddy Paws Dog Training. I was a bit disappointed at first to find out that all training was going to take place online, but I needn't have worried, as the online training worked very well indeed. Susie had plenty of time to explain the exercises, we were able to watch the accompanying videos without interruptions from our dogs and when it was our turn to do the exercises, we got plenty of encouragement and feedback to make sure we got the best out of our dogs. Another thing I really like is the fact that we got sent a copy of all the training sessions so we are able to go back to any of the exercises whenever we feel the need. Susie is very approachable and always willing to help with any questions you my have outside of the training sessions. I have no reservations at all about recommending Muddy Paws Dog training. My dog Charlie and I thoroughly enjoyed it, we have learned loads and are already signed up for the next course.
We have just completed the 6 weeks online Puppy Training with Susie and we had so much fun. Being able to train at home via Zoom was so beneficial for us especially during the pandemic. All the techniques were fun and the puppies learnt so much. It was great to have all the resources available online after the class to be able to recap on. Susie is a great trainer and is so approachable. Highly recommend and we are looking forward to the next online Zoom classes.

Brilliant. Great experience with chaz, helping us immensely with Jack and the difference in Jack our reactive lurcher is incredible. Can’t recommend highly enough
I can't recommend Chaz and Man's Best Friend Rescue and Training Association highly enough. We adopted our Labrador, David, as a rescue and quickly realized we needed professional help. David was uncontrollable on walks, pulling and lunging, and had some concerning behavioral issues at home. Chaz immediately understood our challenges. He tailored a training program specifically for David, focusing on lead work, manners, impulse control, and building David's confidence. The results have been incredible. We can now enjoy walks with David, and he's so much calmer and happier at home. What sets Chaz apart is his patience, understanding, and genuine love for dogs. He not only trained David but also educated us on how to be better dog parent’s. He's a true expert in dog behavior and training, especially when it comes to rescue dogs. If you're struggling with a rescue dog or just need help with training, don't hesitate to contact Man's Best Friend Rescue and Training Association. Chaz will change your life and your dog's life for the better. We're so grateful for everything he's done for us and David.
Fantastic results for our two boxers :-)
Finding qualified dog trainers in Uphill requires understanding the unique coastal environment of this charming Somerset village. From training puppies to navigate the busy beach areas near Uphill Beach to teaching recall commands across the expansive Uphill Nature Reserve, our certified trainers deliver personalised obedience training and behaviour modification programmes tailored to coastal living.
Serving Uphill, Weston-super-Mare, and surrounding areas including BS23 postcodes, we've successfully trained over 450 local dogs in the past eight years. Our expertise addresses the specific challenges of dog ownership in this coastal community, from managing distractions along the Weston Bay seafront to ensuring safe, controlled exercise across Uphill's clifftop walks.
Uphill presents distinctive training requirements shaped by its coastal location and proximity to popular beach destinations. The village's stunning clifftop paths, expansive nature reserve, and access to Weston-super-Mare's beaches provide excellent exercise opportunities but require dogs with solid recall and excellent behaviour around wildlife, other dogs, and beach visitors. The seasonal influx of tourists during summer months means dogs must remain calm amid increased activity.
Our trainers specialise in coastal-specific challenges including desensitisation to seagulls, wind noise, waves, and the strong smells along Uphill Slipway. We understand the importance of training dogs who can safely enjoy off-lead freedom across the nature reserve while respecting ground-nesting birds and other wildlife. Many Uphill residents live in traditional cottages or modern developments near Uphill Way, making good neighbour manners and community consideration essential aspects of our training programmes.
Our specialised coastal training develops reliable recall despite beach distractions including other dogs, paddlers, picnickers, and wildlife. We train dogs to respond immediately even when approaching the shoreline or investigating interesting scents along the tide line. Sessions at quieter beach areas and Uphill Nature Reserve gradually build reliability before progressing to busier summer conditions, ensuring your dog can safely enjoy Uphill's beautiful coastal environment year-round.
Our puppy programmes introduce young dogs to Uphill's coastal environment during the critical 8-16 week socialisation window. Training covers essential commands, lead walking, and exposure to coastal stimuli including seabirds, wind, sand, and the sounds of the nearby marina. Controlled socialisation helps puppies develop into confident, well-adjusted dogs ready for village life and beach adventures.
Uphill's narrow village lanes and popular walking routes can trigger or worsen reactivity issues. Our behaviour modification programmes address leash reactivity, fear-based responses, and over-excitement around other dogs using positive reinforcement techniques. Progressive training along quieter paths before advancing to busier areas builds confidence and control, transforming stressful walks into enjoyable experiences.
Dog training in Uphill typically costs £35-65 per hour for private sessions, with package deals offering better value at £200-450 for 6-8 week programmes. Group classes range from £10-18 per session, providing affordable socialisation opportunities while building essential skills.
Yes, dogs can be trained for safe beach behaviour including reliable recall, ignoring food and wildlife, and responding to commands despite distractions. Training typically requires 6-10 sessions, starting in controlled environments before progressing to busy beach conditions. This ensures your dog can enjoy Uphill's beaches safely and responsibly throughout the year.
Professional dog training in Uphill creates confident, well-mannered companions perfectly suited to coastal village life. Our proven methods combine effective training techniques with knowledge of Uphill's unique environment, ensuring your dog thrives whether exploring the nature reserve, walking village lanes, or enjoying beach time.
