Details
This course is for all dogs over 10 months at commencement, who have completed their vaccinations and have a few basic skills, perhaps completed the early puppy foundation course although not essential.
but are now ready to improve their "Skills for Life"
The course is over 6 sessions with the option to take The Kennel Club Bronze Award or Silver test on a separate session.
Goldmark Dogs are proud to have Approved Listed Status with the Kennel Club for the Good Citizen Dog Scheme and all the courses are run under their guidelines. This is the largest Dog training Scheme in the UK.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
We will teach you how to train your dog to walk nicely on a lead and behave in a controlled manner around distractions, including other animals and people.
To come back when called - recall.
To stay in one position, when asked.
Not to jump up at you or your visitors.
To be well mannered around food
To be a balanced and socialised dog that you can take anywhere.
PLUS we train in a safe and clean environment with a maximum of 6 dogs.
There will be opportunities to interact with the other dogs off lead on the course as part of the socialisation. This will be only under supervision. Therefore if you feel that your dog will become fearful/aggressive please advise me beforehand, so that we can take action to remedy this.
Instructions
Dogs should be on a flat collar with legal ID tag and standard lead, no slip leads or retractable ones please, although if you have a long training line, that will be useful.
Harnesses and head-collars are permitted.
A mat or small bed for your dog to settle on between exercises
A bowl with a water bottle
Poo bags
Make sure that your dog has not eaten for at least 3 hours. He or she will be working for their dinner and they will be more focused if they are hungry!
Bring plenty of high value treats in a training treat bag that you will wear around your waist or in a pocket.
Plus bring extras and their normal dried food in another container to top up - yes that’s loads of food!
You will also need a soft tuggy toy or a ball on a rope or both!
For the first session only I will need to see the dogs vaccination certificate
Ensure your dog has relieved himself before class commences
Dispose of any Pooh bags in the appropriate bin outside.
There is plenty of parking at the venue, However, the hall has other users so keep your dog on a lead and be a shining example of a good dog owner.😁
