How we train

Lead the Way is built on empathy, science-backed methods, and a commitment to making training feel doable.

At Lead the Way Dog Training I specialise in practical, reward-based training for real life.

Whether you're welcoming a new puppy, working through specific challenges, or just want a better connection with your dog, I'm here to help.

I work with you in your home or out in the world to build the skills you and your dog need to thrive together.

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I focus on understanding your dog as an individual and creating a tailored plan that fits your goals.

Lauren Conway

As a trainer, I believe learning should be fun for both ends of the lead. I strive to create a supportive, down-to-earth environment where dogs can thrive and owners can feel confident, informed, and empowered.
