The Dog Talk Hub

For the first time at Edition Dog Live, we are delighted to welcome Association of Pet Dog Trainers with their very own dedicated hub at the event.

Established in 1995, the APDT is the UK’s largest not-for-profit organisation for dog training instructors, promoting kind, fair, and effective training methods rooted in modern learning theory. The organisation is widely respected for its commitment to dog welfare, professional standards, and education for both trainers and dog owners alike.

Across the weekend, the APDT Hub will host a programme of talks, discussions, meet-and-greet opportunities, and “ask the experts” sessions featuring a variety of trainers and canine professionals. Whether you are looking for practical guidance, professional insight, or simply the opportunity to chat with experienced experts, the hub will offer an engaging and welcoming space to learn more about training, behaviour, and life with dogs.

You will also be able to catch members of the APDT team live in action within the main arena across the weekend, showcasing training skills, practical demonstrations, and real-world guidance.

Full session listings and schedules will be confirmed soon.
