🐶🐾 Foundation Clicker Training Class - Positive Reinforcement
Got a puppy? A novice dog? A rescue who needs confidence and clear communication? This foundation clicker training class is designed to build great habits from the start using kind, science-based, positive reinforcement methods.
Got a dog who pulls on the lead, ignores recall, or turns “drop it” into a friendly debate? We can help.
Our Dog Foundational Skills class builds the everyday skills that make life smoother and more fun: loose lead walking, recall, self-control, play skills, drop, and more. You’ll learn practical, real-world training plus the simple theory behind it, so you know what to do and why it works.
We use positive reinforcement and clicker training to keep learning clear, kind, and motivating for your dog.
Build great habits, boost your dog’s confidence, and enjoy calmer walks and better focus—starting this March!

Today is Time To Talk Day. It's the nation's biggest mental health conversation. A chance to listen, share, and talk about what really matters.
Mind is open daily, all year round for anyone who would like to talk. If you'd currently rather read than talk, there's lots of information on their website.
Today we were invited to Portfield School for a coffee morning to speak to families of leavers to provide information and guidance on future day service opportunities 🐕🦺
SPPOT staff and volunteers spoke with attendees about our day services and what opportunities we can provide to them and how we can tailor this to their individual needs🤗
We look forward to welcoming new faces to our SPPOT family ☺️🐶

We like this kind of January - cold, bright and dry.
We'd rather not have the other kind of January please - torrential rain, gales, snow and ice again.

SPPOT - Supporting People & Pets through Opportunity & Training
SPPOT is a unique social enterprise offering dogs and their human families, a highly affordable, award winning dog walking service across Pembrokeshire and high quality daycare for dogs.
We are able to embed positive reward based training into our dog walking and daycare services, because all our staff and volunteers are themselves qualified and accredited in dog care, training and welfare.
SPPOT is an Agored Cymru Recognised Centre, delivering accredited training courses in canine training and welfare for adults and young people who experience barriers to work and education. This enables trainees to become part of SPPOT’s team as Volunteer Dog Walkers who walk dogs all over Pembrokeshire and K9 Keyworkers who volunteer their time at our dedicated headquarters in Haverfordwest providing high quality daycare for dogs.
The dog walking & daycare are offered at a competitive rates for the general public with a significant concession for vulnerable people in the community. Thus we can bring together the needs of two people, through shared care of a dog, benefiting both people and the dog.
Dogs are scientifically proven to be of significant health and social benefit to people, therefore SPPOT’s progressive enterprise model will reduce dependence on health and social care services which are already under strain. People also have the capacity to reduce the suffering and neglect of dogs.
Society in the UK is still geared towards fully able people and it remains incredibly difficult for disabled people to find truly flexible, supportive employment. In order to claim government benefit, people with long term disabilities and illnesses must focus on what they cannot do, in order to qualify for money to live.
SPPOT focuses on what people can do, for example, we will focus on a person’s ability to work six hours a week for eight months of the year. The current mainstream system simply rejects people who cannot work 48 weeks of the year.
The SPPOT Team has enormous collective experience and wide ranging skills and fully understands the requirements of commercial business and also traditional health and social care services but believes there needs to be a fundamental shift in the UK’s attitude to people who have long term barriers to full employment, towards ‘can train’, ‘can learn’, ‘can work’ and ‘can help others’. The SPPOT Team are successfully demonstrating this every day, through delivery of robust, high quality, outcomes driven services for people and dogs.
