Please ensure you book a session ticket for all humans attending as well as all dogs. Dog tickets are very limited for each session, as we can’t always ensure they’re as well behaved as their humans!
Humans are welcome and encouraged to come along without their dog if we reach capacity, or if you think they won’t enjoy the event. You can still learn lots from the event with your dogs safely at home!
We kindly ask that dogs are on a short, fixed lead at Raystede. We oppose dogs wearing aversive equipment such as choke chains, prong collars and electric shock collars, therefore we cannot allow entry to Raystede wearing these. However, please come and talk to our qualified dog behaviourists if you would like support with training methods to make wearing a collar and/or harness more enjoyable.
“It was great fun and any pet owner or future pet owner should attend, you can never have too much information.”
“This was an amazing event! The advice I received on enrichment and making "sniffaris" for our dogs was brilliant. The Behavioural Session was also incredibly interesting. Thank you to the entire team at Raystede for your time, knowledge, kindness and care towards our canine family members who mean the world to us.”
