Welcome to the St Ives Dog Training Club

The St Ives Dog Training Club, based in Cambridgeshire is run by a collective of experienced owners, trainers, and above all – dog lovers!

Our mission is to help fellow dog owners, just like us, to achieve and to nurture healthy, happy relationships between Master & Pooch, through our combined expertise, support, and tried & tested training methods.

Our organisation is regarded as hugely beneficial for both dogs & owners, but also great fun, and a wonderful place to meet like-minded individuals and maybe even make life-long friends!

The SIDTC offers an array of classes to cover the entire life of your dog.  In fact, many members enjoy the classes to the extent they remain active club members for many years.
Some move on to other canine sports such as Gun Dog Training or Agility.

If you have questions about the club, or any of our classes – please send us an email!
