Welcome to The Working Puppy Company

Puppy and Dog Training in Aberdeenshire

The Working Puppy Company is the premier Dog Obedience and Gundog Training School in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire and the North East of Scotland. We hold around 10 group classes per week, as well as 1:1 lessons with a team of 4 trainers who have a combined experience of over 90 years working, training and competing with working dogs.

​

Here at The Working Puppy Company our aim is to give you the tools to train your dog to become well-behaved, happy, and obedient using gundog training methods. Owner and head trainer Kirsten Rennie feels it is an important part of the process to ensure that the owners are as well trained as the dogs. We offer practical and informative lessons in a fun, safe and stimulating environment.

​

We believe in training your dog through positive communication, appropriately praising and reprimanding and using body language and play so that you create a strong and rewarding bond with your puppy or dog.  You should be the most interesting element in your dog's life and the best way to create a bond with your puppy or dog is through stimulating training. Dogs don't see training as ’training’, they see it as fun time with their favourite human. The better you do it, and the more you do it, the more they enjoy it!

​

All obedience lessons take place outside in our enclosed floodlit paddock at Wester Fintray Farm, just outside Kintore in Aberdeenshire where there is ample space for both individual and group lessons, while we have additional training ground available for gundog lessons.
