Welcome!

ADTB was founded in April 2001 by Jenni Watson

The aim of the organisation is to offer people who wish to enter the field of Dog Training and/or Behaviour Counselling a starting point. It also benefits present day trainers who may feel they are looking for some refreshing content to add to their classes.

It allows people from both the United Kingdom and every corner of the world an opportunity to join one of the most successful canine related organisations.

Whether as a career change or hobby we offer a well laid out set of 6 training courses which participants study online.

So many people begin dog training without the required knowledge or even a business plan. The information provided within the structure of the ADTB courses is designed to help would be Trainers to plan ahead. It also allows present day trainers to keep abreast of new and modern training methods.

Within the ADTB we believe that practical training experience is a “MUST” before people undertake hands on training of dogs but everyone must start somewhere and we truly believe our courses are a great place to start.

The ADTB does not provide practical training courses.
