This course offers follow-on training for dogs that have completed the young puppy class, and also welcomes older puppies and rescue dogs. The exercises are designed to develop a polite, well-behaved companion dog, and also to help you to understand your dog, particularly how it learns and how to teach it what you want.

The course covers:

TRAINING

¨ Walking on a loose lead

¨ Coming when called

¨ Sit, and practical applications such as being polite around doors and kerbs

¨ Down

¨ Stay

¨ Give

¨ Leave

¨ Tricks—big dogs need cute behaviours and trick training is an ideal tool to teach key training skills to the handler

MENTAL DEVELOPMENT

¨ People and other dogs - please be polite to them

¨ How dogs learn – and what your dog looks like when it is learning

¨ Leadership – you or your dog?

¨ Fitting in with the family

¨ How to solve problems in training

HUSBANDRY

¨ Handling, vet examination, and grooming

¨ Building the right relationship

¨ Grabbing their collar (useful – believe me!)
