Whickham

Dog training in Whickham
Whickham is a busy residential area close to the Derwent Walk Country Park and the Gibside estate. Families here often want a puppy or young dog who settles at home and walks calmly on popular paths.

Preparing before the puppy arrives
Many Whickham families contact Donna before collecting a puppy. Planning where the puppy will sleep, how toilet trips will work and how children will play makes the first weeks calmer, and helps avoid problems such as nipping and jumping becoming habits.
See puppy foundations and the Perfect Puppy Programme, then contact Donna with your puppy’s collection date.
We are getting a puppy in Whickham. Can Donna help us prepare?
Yes. It is helpful to talk before or soon after your puppy arrives so routines, toilet training and early socialisation can be planned.
