Basic Obedience Class

Service Description

Please leave your dog in the car until you are directed into the training field. A staff member will open the gate to the training field and direct you in with your dog. Why should I bring my dog to basic obedience? This course is perfect for older dogs that are too old for puppy training but still need to socialise with other dogs in a controlled but fun environment. This class is for mixed ages and it is important to reinforce your obedience training throughout their life which long term will be beneficial to not only you and you dog but others around you. What can I expect with my dog from this class? We will show you various things your dog needs to know such as handler focus, stable obedience positions, a sit-stay, down-stay, recall with distractions, heelwork, approaches and socialisation. Any specific behaviour issues can also be dealt with during the class. What should I bring to class? Do not feed your dog at least 2 hours before doing any training. Please ensure you bring with you a motivational toy and/or high value soft treats that your puppy likes. Poo bags are also essential, however if you have forgotten bags or treats, you can buy them from our dog shop on site. How much does the class cost? You are responsible for your dogs behaviour at all times. Dogs can be unpredictable in their behaviour at times and although the risk is minimal that is the nature of a dog training and socialisation environment. Do not bring your dog to class if she is in season. Please read our full terms and conditions for further details.
