Claire McRae

My interest in training dogs started after I adopted my deaf Jack Russell Terrier from Battersea Dogs Home in 2001. I taught him sign language and found training him was much easier than training a hearing dog. I became a Puppy School Tutor in 2016, and run Puppy School Whickham.

Our classes are based in Whickham, Gateshead. We offer Puppy School basic training classes for beginners, and also SuperPup classes, which is a follow on course.
The classes have a maximum of 6 puppies, providing a high level of coaching.
