# Whitty Canine Academy Description
Whitty Canine Academy is a dog training business based in Altrincham that serves dog owners across Altrincham, Hale and surrounding areas. Led by trainer Craig, the academy specialises in transforming dog behaviour whilst empowering owners with the knowledge and confidence to maintain progress at home.
The business addresses common behavioural challenges including loose lead walking, recall training, excessive barking, nervousness, aggression towards other dogs and visitors, toy guarding, and socialisation issues. Craig works with dogs of all types, from French Bulldogs to rescue dogs with complex behavioural histories, demonstrating particular expertise with anxious and reactive dogs.
What sets Whitty Canine Academy apart is their owner-focused approach. Rather than simply training dogs, Craig prioritises teaching owners how to effectively use praise and implement training techniques independently. Client testimonials consistently highlight the immediate, visible progress dogs make within single sessions, combined with Craig's professional yet approachable manner. The business has proven success with rescue dogs requiring rehabilitation, nervous dogs needing confidence building, and dogs needing advanced obedience work like heel training.
The academy's philosophy centres on practical, results-driven training that translates into genuinely improved quality of life for both dogs and their owners—transforming difficult walks into enjoyable experiences and helping rescue dogs integrate confidently into family homes.
