Now for the class sessions.

First night is for registration & explanation of what we will do.  All questions answered & an easy exercise given to get their dogs to pay attention.

Actual training aims to give attendees an idea of how their dogs think & learn.

We do this by teaching:

  • Attention
  • Sit
  • Down
  • Stay
  • Loose lead walking
  • Achieving a good recall despite distractions
  • Socialisation with new dogs
  • Anything else which pupils bring up during class
