Emergency Skills for Dogs & Their

A 6-week practical course teaching you and your dog what to do when the unexpected happens.
A 6-week practical course teaching you and your dog what to do when the unexpected happens.
- Off-lead dog heading straight for you?
- Your dog suddenly grabs something they shouldn't?
- Need to get out of Dodge quickly?
- Or get your dog back to you NOW?
This is the stuff you don't want to be figuring out for the first time when it's already happening.
In-person classes in Chedburgh (Thursday Evenings), between Newmarket & Bury St Edmunds
Small Groups, Ethical, positive reinforcement training.
Over Six Weeks We'll Tackle:
When an off-lead dog comes running over “Don't worry, he's friendly!” isn't much help when you don't want another dog in your dog's space.
When your dog spots it before you do
Your dog sees something. You tense. The lead tightens. What happens next?
When you need to get out of there
Another dog appears around the corner. Something ahead makes your dog uncomfortable. Or you simply decide you don't want to deal with what's coming.
When “Come!” really matters
We'll work on building a special response for those occasions when getting your dog back to you quickly matters.
When you really need them to leave it
Discarded food. Something disgusting. Something potentially unsafe.
When you don't know what's coming next In our final week we'll put the skills together with carefully controlled real-life scenarios, so you can practise deciding what to do when you haven't had time to plan for it.
Why Ready for Anything?
Because you can't control what other people, dogs or the world around you are going to do.
But you can have a few well-practised options ready when you need them.
That's what this course is about.
Is this class right for my dog?
Ready for Anything is for adolescent and adult dogs and their humans who want practical skills for navigating everyday life together.
Your dog doesn't need to be perfectly trained.
Classes are kept small, with a maximum of five dogs, giving you plenty of space to work and individual help throughout the course.
Dogs do need to be comfortable enough around other dogs and people to be able to learn in a group environment.
We do offer this as a 1:1 and online options so you're unsure whether the class would suit your dog or you don't live locally, get in touch and we can have a chat.

Tracy Hancock
Welcome to Dogwarts K9 Academy the home for reactive and anxious dogs and also The Cockapoo Trainer where we specialise in this very misunderstood beautiful breed. We help stressed-out dog parents finally overcome training struggles and fall back in love with their dogs through pressure-free, fun techniques that deliver real, lasting results.
As well as helping dogs of all breeds, I also specialise in Cockapoos and cases of reactivity and anxiety — supporting these sensitive pups and their guardians to transform challenging behaviours into calm confidence.
When you work with me, you get the kind of training your dog would choose if they could pick — because my approach teaches you to truly understand your dog, speak their language, and uncover the real meaning behind their behaviour. This creates an unbreakable bond of trust that unlocks incredible progress — results that don’t just meet expectations, they surpass them.
I never use aversive methods or intimidation — you can trust that your training will always be judgement-free, pressure-free, and fear-free. Instead, I teach fun, engaging techniques your dog relates to and enjoys, putting the joy back into your training sessions and making your results truly unstoppable.
Together, we break it all down — discovering your dog’s go-to responses, uncovering hidden triggers (which might surprise you), and rebuilding hope and harmony into your lives.
From Cockapoos who struggle with reactivity and anxiety, to dogs of all breeds facing noise sensitivity, separation issues, lead reactivity, and more, I’ve helped countless dogs reshaped and rebuild their emotional wellbeing. Through our compassionate approach, we help your dog live with less anxiety or reactivity so they can experience more adventures with you by their side.
