Much can be done BEFORE they have had all their inoculations and are ready to walk outside.The key to effective training is teaching your pup that whenever he does something wrong, you immediately redirect him to what you expect and then reward for getting it right.

Training and behaviour problems are resolved without the punishment-based techniques that commonly result in fear, aggression, or deterioration of the bond between dog and owner.Instead I utilise positive methods based on well-established learning theories and behavioural science that are humane, practical and effective. I teach marker-based training, either with a clicker or word, combined with rewards of all kinds (e.g., food, toys, play, and praise).All my training sessions reflect a comprehensive understanding of the dog&rsquo;s natural behaviour, and take into respect learning abilities as well as the dog&rsquo;s mental and physical developmental stages. In my classes, I strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable learning experience as I believe that the human part of the equation needs as much support and understanding as the canine component.Most people learn more quickly when not subjected to criticisms and negative feedback and therefore, a positive approach to the training of the people is an integral part of all our classes. <h2 style="color: rgb(203, 151, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(203, 151, 0);">Please contact us for prices</h2>(they vary depending on what&rsquo;s required)

Adolescent and mature dogs 1-2-1’s
Adolescence in dogs is reached by month 7-8 & the dog becomes fully mature by month 18.
We’ll cover the following in our sessions or can focus on a specific need if requiredat’s r
Obedience
Heel-work so your dog walks nicely by your side and doesn’t pull.
Wait / Stay commands for both obedience and safety
Interactive play and bond building to aid recall
Recall development is essential for all dogs big and small.
“Leave it” command so the dog ignores what its told to leave
Focus will allow a higher level of obedience.
I believe positive reinforcement training is the best way to create a happy and confident dog who understands what is expected of them.
I teach owners how to establish boundaries at home and employ problem behaviour prevention strategies from early puppyhood onwards. Training and behaviour problems are resolved without the punishment-based techniques that commonly result in fear, aggression, or deterioration of the bond between dog and owner.
Instead I utilise positive methods based on well-established learning theories and behavioural science that are humane, practical and effective. I teach marker-based training, either with a clicker or word, combined with rewards of all kinds (e.g., food, toys, play, and praise).
All my training sessions reflect a comprehensive understanding of the dog’s natural behaviour, and take into respect learning abilities as well as the dog’s mental and physical developmental stages. In my classes, I strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable learning experience as I believe that the human part of the equation needs as much support and understanding as the canine component.
Most people learn more quickly when not subjected to criticisms and negative feedback and therefore, a positive approach to the training of the people is an integral part of all our classes.
