3 WEEK COURSE - IN-HOME TRAINING
All of our classes are run by an approved G3 instructor with a personalised one-to-one class at your home. This ensures that you get entire individual attention and enables us to monitor your progress within the course.
All of our training methods are kind, fun, highly motivational and effective with all owners encouraged to take a full active participation in the class.
We will teach you to understand the way in which a dog really thinks and learns in order to achieve a better bond, more control and a dog that is an absolute pleasure to own.
Beginner classes are a good starting point for:
- Puppies after 1st vaccinations (If enrolling a puppy to class, you can discuss this with your vet, and we will keep all the training in-home.)
- Older dogs who have had little or no training
- Dogs that require a refresher in the basics.
- Rescue Dogs
- Naughty dogs are to be expected, but if your dog has aggression problems, please tell us in advance.

| Each three week course follows a structured training program with all dogs and owners encouraged to progress at their own rate. Children over the age of 6 are welcome to the class. Your child can also join in with training as long as he/she is physically capable of handling the dog. |

What to prepare for the Beginners Class.
- Your dog on a well fitted collar (we prefer no harnesses unless needed for medical reasons)
- A standard length lead. (retractable leads are acceptable, but alternatives are preferred. Long lines are ok)
- Your dog's favourite treats and a favourite toy
RULES
- Exercise your dog for 10-15 minutes before the class (15 minutes before) so that he has a chance to relieve himself and drain excess energy.
- We recommend you do not feed your dog up to 3 hours before the class, and no water for 1 hour, as feeding too close to training time can put your dog at risk of gastric torsion.
- Please expect the trainer to arrive at least 10 minutes before the start of the class. If the trainer may be late, he/she will inform you by telephone and the time will be made up after the session or on your next session.
- If your dog is ill for whatever reason or comes into season, please tell us as soon as possible.
- If you are going to miss a lesson for whatever reason, we can arrange to reschedule your session at another time. We like to work 100% with owners who are fully commited to the course.
- We encourage all of the family to attend classes and children are more than welcome to come to class, but they MUST be well behaved. We reserve the right to remove anyone from the class if their children are being a nuisance. Children running around the class out of control is dangerous for both themselves and the dogs around them.
