# Bugzy's Dogs
Bugzy's Dogs is a dog training business based in Croydon that specialises in puppy training, obedience classes, and one-to-one gundog instruction for the Croydon and Bromley areas. The business serves new puppy owners, families with behavioural concerns, and those seeking professional gundog training.
What sets Bugzy's Dogs apart is their emphasis on building the bond between owner and dog as the foundation for obedience, rather than focusing solely on socialisation. The team, led by trainer Karen, takes an individualised approach—each dog receives dedicated attention from assistant trainers during group classes. Their methods address specific behavioural issues such as resource guarding, jumping, lead reactivity, and scavenging through practical, psychology-informed techniques that owners can implement at home.
The business has earned recognition through partnerships with Tug-e-nuff and accreditation with the Canine Instructor Academy. Client testimonials consistently highlight the friendly, relaxed atmosphere, the trainers' expertise in dog psychology, and tangible results—from improved recall and loose lead walking to significant reductions in unwanted behaviours. Karen and her team provide comprehensive support, including pre-puppy consultations for new owners and ongoing guidance throughout training programmes.
The eight-week class structure covers essential skills including recall, distraction training, stay techniques, loose lead walking, and doorway manners. Whether addressing nuisance behaviours or developing confident, well-mannered dogs, Bugzy's Dogs combines professional expertise with an approachable, supportive training environment.
