Basic Beginners Classes

Aim

To build a working relationship between dog and owner based on trust and understanding. In this course we will teach how to understand your dog and work with them using their own drives and individual personality.

The Course

Runs for 8 weeks, at the end of which, you and your dog should be able to complete the following exercises:

paw print Sit and focus on the owner for 1min around heavy distractions
paw print “Down” and “wait down” until released
paw print Stay in either “sit” or “down” until released
paw print Heelwork whilst focusing on the owner
paw print Walk on a lead without pulling
paw print Come back when called

Class Format

These classes are held outside and each will run for 1 hour. We have a relaxed, friendly and motivational atmosphere - with no shouting at either dog or owner! We run our classes to include fun games and you will be encouraged to enjoy your training. We will have a Max of 6 dogs in each class (8 if there are two trainers). This ensures that each dog and owner can have some individual attention.

You will need

paw print Your dog
paw print A toy and some tasty treats
paw print A flat collar and lead or harness
paw print A bucket full of enthusiasm - and a sense of humour!

Course Fees

The course fee is £60 (payable by an advance deposit of £10.00 with the balance paid at the first class – cheque or cash).
