The CANINE BEHAVIOUR, REHABILITATION AND TRAINING SCHOOL (K9BRATS) offers professional dog training and behaviour counselling services with a wide range of options to cater for the individual dog and owner, from puppy training classes to the rehabilitation of aggressive dogs. 

K9 BRATS is based at Glenbrittle Kennels, Burton, South Wirral. Glenbrittle boasts excellent facilities for all aspects of caring for your dog making it an excellent venue for training. In fact, 2008 will see an expansion of both the training and behaviour counselling facilities, enabling K9 BRATS to offer an even greater range of services.

Further details of the various training and behaviour options can be found in the services section of the website and all of the 2008 course dates are listed in the diary section. However, please feel free to get in touch so we can discuss the best option for you and your dog(s).
