Blackpool dogs need Blackpool training
Most dog problems don't happen in a training hall. They happen on your specific street, your specific walk, with your specific dog. That's why Planet Pup trains where the problems are.
Blackpool is one of Cork's busiest northside areas — a mix of established residential streets, busy retail, heavy traffic and constant footfall around the shopping centre and valley road. For dogs, this level of stimulation can mean pulling, barking, reactivity and general overexcitement every time you step out the door. We train on your streets and routes so your dog learns to stay calm in the environment they actually live in.
The residential areas surrounding Blackpool — including parts of Mayfield, The Glen, Ballyvolane and Farranree — are densely populated with lots of on-lead dog encounters on narrow footpaths and estate roads. These close-quarter situations are a common trigger for lead reactivity and pulling. Training in your estate means your dog learns to behave in the exact situations where they currently struggle most.
The Blackpool Glen and surrounding northside walks offer good exercise options, but also plenty of distractions — other dogs, joggers, cyclists and open green spaces where recall becomes unreliable. We work on focus, loose lead walking and reliable recall on these specific routes so walks become something you look forward to rather than dread.
Dogs learn best in familiar environments. Coming to you means your dog is relaxed, focused, and the skills we work on are immediately relevant to the exact spaces and situations you share every day.

Real feedback from dog owners in Ballincollig, Carrigaline, Douglas and across Cork.
“We were so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Lauren, who helped us achieve a very hyper overactive puppy to this calm obedient dog.”
- Mary and Harley
Ballyvolane
"Hi. Lauren trained my Dad's dog. His dog is a rescue and had a hard start. Lauren called to my Dad's house for 6 sessions. She was always very prompt. Lauren was also very patient with both us and the dog and explained what she was doing and why. She really helped us to train Holly. She also gave us so many useful tips to carry on training Holly ourselves. On the last day of training, Lauren told us that we could contact her any time we needed to in the future. Myself, my Dad and of course, Holly, can't recommend Lauren enough."

"Let it be said from the start, we can’t recommend Lauren enough! We got a rescue dog who is amazing in so many ways, but also had some pretty tough behaviours - terrible separation anxiety, would chew up anything if left alone, pulled like mad on the leash, and had a hard time around other dogs. He clearly wanted to play, but he would get so nervous that he would frequently snap at other dogs.
From the first session, Lauren helped us make sense of everything. She connected the dots between his behaviour and what we were doing (or not doing!) and gave us clear, easy-to-follow guidance. She was always patient, made sure we understood what we were doing, and helped us get it right.
What we loved was how fun she made the training. She gave us games and exercises that not only worked, but also helped us bond more with our dog. The difference in him now is like night and day.
If you're having a hard time with your dog, go to Lauren. She's brilliant!”
