Young dogs class
Nearly everyone will have a dog which at some point turns into a wild beast! Commonly these are adolescents who have forgotten everything you have ever taught them, any dog that is wild and over excitable, or dogs who you just can’t seem to get through to any more… So, we designed this class with these dogs in mind! This class is all about teaching self-control, working with distractions, addressing frustration and getting your dog to listen to you!
We teach real life skills, through our mastery curriculum. This introduces various strands that we work our way through, ensuring that the dog has mastered each step before we make it harder. These strands are all linked to the most common issues people have with their dogs and how to tackle them.
Many people choose to stay in this class for a few terms so that their dog can consolidate and then extend their learning. The curriculum in this class caters for dogs who have undertaken differing amounts of training.
Each week, we work with some of the strands, slowly building secure learning and then adding distractions. We teach FOR a situation and not IN the situation!
This class is builds on from the puppy class but the curriculum is designed for new dogs to working with us, as well as those who are more experienced.
