Fun and engaging:
Our engaging classes are fun and relaxed, and we will employ positive reinforcement techniques to teach the essential skills your puppy requires for life alongside you and your family. Together, we will select the methods that best align with both your goals and your puppy’s unique personality.
Understand each other:
Our approach extends beyond the conventional six-week puppy course. We aspire for you to gain a clear understanding of your dog’s needs to create a harmonious relationship for life.
Flexible booking:
We offer flexible scheduling options to accommodate your busy life. Choose from single sessions, or save money with a series of four or eight classes at times that work for you, availability permitting.
Rolling classes:
The classes are on an 8 week rotation but structured in such a way that even if you attend the same session twice you will learn something new, get more practise with your pup and meet new dogs and people along the way. You can do as many or as few sessions as you like until you feel your dog is ready to move on.
Start straightaway:
The rolling class structure means that you can join a class as soon as your puppy is fully vaccinated. You can even book well in advance to avoid missing out as our classes are limited in size so we can offer you the best training and support possible without crowding and chaos.
Lots to learn:
Our curriculum covers the foundational skills that are vital for your puppy’s training success and offers guidance to help you excel in your role as a puppy owner.
In your classes, we will reinforce the skills you and your puppy have practised at home, in an environment filled with other puppies and people.
Establishing robust foundations is crucial to the success of all your training endeavours.
In addition to the fundamental skills of lead walking, recall, sitting, and settling, we will explore:
🐶 Puppy obedience (Sit//Down/Stay/Settle)
🐶 Lead walking foundations – how to walk nicely on lead
🐶 Getting started with a solid recall
🐶 Teaching your puppy impulse control
🐶 Manners around food including ‘leave it’
🐶 Understanding your puppy’s behaviour and body language
🐶 Manners around people and dogs
🐶 Simple tricks and fun focus games to get your puppy to engage
🐶 Socialisation and polite greetings
Pre-requisites: - no prior training is required - all puppies must have completed their vaccinations to attend.
This is a low-pressure, relaxed, fun class with no formal assessment, so owners don’t need to worry about that. We just want you and your dog to build a great relationship through relaxed and fun training sessions, whilst learning all the puppy foundations you'll need.
If your puppy completes 4 sessions they will receive a Silver achievement certificate and at 8 sessions, they will receive a Gold completion certificate. You can then continue on to practise more, or your dog can then join our Progression class where you can continue to build on these new skills and progress to the next level in your training. Complete Silver award level in Puppy AND Gold award in Progression classes and get our Special Award rosette as well as your certificates.
