Dog Behaviourists

Our award winning behaviourial work has been recognised nationally. We understand that some dogs require a more specialised approach. For this we can offer behaviour consultations on a 1-2-1 basis at our training centre in Frome. This is a speciality of ours and we are vet recommended.

We are confident with all breeds and will not be put off if your dog is large or boisterous! We have experience working with all behavioural problems including reactivity towards people or dogs, separation issues, loose lead walking, resource guarding, puppy biting, and everything else in between.

Our highly experienced MBIPDT qualified dog behaviour experts are here to help you understand your dog's behaviour and eliminate antisocial or dangerous habits.

Private 1-2-1 Dog Training

If you need help teaching your dog essential life skills such as recall, lead walking, focus or obedience, Frome K9 are here to help. Our private 1-2-1 sessions give you dedicated time with an experienced trainer, focused entirely on you and your dog.

Calm, practical training helps your dog understand routines, boundaries and what is expected of them, while building confidence and strengthening the relationship you share.

From everyday life skills to agility, scentwork and advanced training, we’ll give you clear, effective guidance you can continue using at home.

With our spacious indoor training school, sessions can continue comfortably all year round, whatever the weather. We also have a secure enclosed field with agility equipment, giving you and your dog plenty of space to learn, practise and progress.

Private Dog Training

Dog Daycare With a Difference!

Our groups are carefully matched and supervised by our expert instructors to maximise your dog’s enjoyment and our onsite behaviourists work with your dog throughout the day. Tailored training is incorporated, as well as reinforcing appropriate behaviour and downtime for the dogs to relax. Our unique approach allows us to take in dogs with behavioural issues who may not be suited to the usual daycare environment.

Please note, if your dog hasn't visited FromeK9 before, please contact us prior to booking. Many thanks.

“We were struggling with our GSD pup not listening to us, showing no respect. So we went to FromeK9 after hearing about them in the doggy grapevine. And wow, was it the best decision we could have ever made. We had an hour 121 behaviour session with Sharon, and she answered all our 101 questions, as well as providing so much advice. We only needed 4 of the 121 sessions before we had things on track, and a big pup that now listened to us. Honestly can't praise FromeK9 enough. Highly recommend.”

“Our rescue Rottie has been going to daycare with training for about a month now and he loves it! We have no idea what has happened to him in the past but I can safely say the amazing team at FromeK9 have never pushed him past his comfort zone. He has so much fun and I know I can 100% trust their knowledge and experience to tailor the best day for him.”
Abbi and Hank
“We are so pleased to have found FromeK9, puppy lessons were great but what it is amazing is they daycare/training. We are so proud of how Dotty is and the work that we do, all of this wouldn’t be possible without the help of Sharon and her wonderful skilled team. It feels so good to have such a team supporting through all the training with your dog. Totally recommendable place.”
