https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/silver-life-skills-tickets-906066468197?aff=oddtdtcreator This course is designed to follow on from our Bronze Life Skills course*.
During this 6 week consecutive course we will be looking at those everyday skills that we covered in Bronze. We will continue to build and proof those behaviours and introduce some new challenges.
As always we want you and your dog leaving having had a great time with each other in a field full of other dogs and people. We make sure you and your dog are working at the right level by raising and lowering criteria when needed. The group environment is friendly and is a great place to practice your training skills in a safe environment.
We have a very large enclosed private field for our training sessions. We maintain distances from each working team. Hand washing and sanitiser is available on site.
*If you are experiencing behaviour problems please contact us before booking as we may recommend a 1-1 before or instead of group training.
Parking charges.
The country park charges for parking. If you are a local and plan regular visits the yearly pass may be a good option for you. Here are more details as they have recently updated their system and no longer take cash.

Where to go
We are located in the Toplands car park in River Hamble country park / Manor Farm. As you enter the country park you will drive through the wooded area and pass an activity centre on your left, keep going, up the hill and past the Barnfield car park park the next turning on your left will be Toplands. We are at the end of the car park past the public dog walking area.

What to bring
Please bring you dog along on a short lead and preferably a harness. If you have a long training line please also bring this along with you. Here is a link if you wish to purchase one, we highly recommend these to allow your puppy/dog a little freedom whilst you build confidence and whilst teaching a recall. They are available in 5m and a lightweight line for those tiny paws :)

(avoid purchasing the10m training line as we find these a hazard)
Lots of small tiny treats. Cut these up as small as you can get them, think 1/4 pea. Bring more than you think you will need and be sure to reduce their dinner on class nights.
A toy. Where possible to a toy that squeaks as this usually means you go home with all the other puppies :) Long soft toys that you can trail along the floor are great games for puppies and teach them lots of polite behaviours such as keep paws on the floor and sharp teeth away from hands.
A mat/bed. Vet bedding is great because it rolls up nicely but what ever you have will do :)
Poo bags.
