Yorkshire German Shepherd Dog Training

This is a great organisation which is extremely welcoming and offers a very supportive training environment. Even during lockdown they welcomed us into the club and helped with training our new pup to ensure we didn't miss that vital development period. Training is relaxed but efficient and as I keep reminding myself is there to train the humans so the dog gets the best guidance from their owners! Cannot recommend them highly enough.

The best place with very upto date trainers with years of wealth of experience fantastic advise given too

I have been a member of the Yorkshire German Shepherd Dog Training group for a number of years now and would recommend it to everyone. I joined with our German Shepherd, Abbey, when she was 1 year old and she will be 4 this month. The confidence and support I have had from this club has been fantastic from the trainers and the other members. All the trainers are brilliant, they are very professional, highly skilled and really know how to get the best out of you and your Shepherd and at the same time also having fun. It is a fantastic group to be a member of and has definitely made Abbey the wonderful companion she is today.

I've been a member of this club now for 15+ years, I've watched it grow into one of the best training clubs for German Shepherds & their handlers. It's a very friendly club with a fantastic atmosphere amongst the members. I'd recommend anyone getting a GSD puppy or even if they have an older that needs help to contact this club with a hope to joining.

All the trainers at the club are dedicated at helping us to help train our GSD's will always go that extra mile. A very balanced approach, reliable will train irrespective of weather so long as safe. Very good value for money will always be available with a wealth of knowledge and expertise. M

We joined the club with our puppy a few months ago had a great induction talk which explained about the club/classes what to expect etc then we moved on to puppy classes. The instructors are all really friendly, helpful and passionate about what they do. Unfortunately after a few weeks lockdown 3 came is so the classes had to stop, however this never meant we were left unsupported. The instructors were fab online, posting training videos, hints and tips and also personalised advise. Great to be back over the last few weeks. Can’t recommend highly enough.

I have attended this club for a couple of weeks now and has been amazing! I’ve enjoyed every bit of training with my puppy and would definitely recommend this group for you’re GSD.

Great training for those who have never trained your GSD, but regardless of your dog's previous training you always start in the beginners class. Not suitable for every dog, especially overreactive dogs, but if you want to help your puppy learn the basics of heel and a little recall it's perfect.Not great, but not bad pricing, we paid £35 for a membership and £35 for 5 lessons and an induction (£5/per lesson + induction paid upfront).The induction for us was 2 hours of standing around listening to someone tell us stories and explaining how the sessions work, and your dog has to be there stood in a small circle surrounded by maybe 5 other dogs (again for 2 hours without training, just standing there) all of the information given could have just been in an email, by the end of the induction all the dogs in our group were restless and screaming/barking at each other.Initial sessions are great, but again lots of standing around and listening around a couple meters away from some possibly very reactive dogs trying to pull off their owners arm to get to your dog.Not ideal for every dog/trainer, perfect for those who have never trained how to heel/recall.Averages of 10 dogs per group.Also they don't seem to believe in correcting your dog, so if it's misbehaving, you won't get told how to fix it, it's operated under the assumption that all dogs only need food and toys for prey drive and a gentle voice.Worth a shot, but we've tried a lot of trainers around Leeds, these guys rank 4 on our list.

Outstanding training group. Our 8 month old GSD has come on leaps and bounds under their guidance. . The instructors are just amazing. They not only have the patience and skills to help owners and their dogs, they explain the how why for all the commands and exercises. We have been so impressed with the whole operation and can’t wait to get back to training as soon as lockdown permits. As well as being thoroughly professional it’s also great fun. No judgement, just heaps of positivity.
