In our training club we believe in starting to teach puppies to learn at a young age. This way you can bond with your puppy right from the moment you get your pup. |
| Our method of training is the click and reward system, which is very kind for the dog and they learn and pick up what you are asking of them much quicker. |
| We start with a consultation, which takes place at your home. The aim of this private session is to show you how to use the clicker, the start of the exercise, body posture, hand signals and voice control. This will help by making you feel more comfortable on your first night at the club and will also help you with any problems you may be experiencing with your puppy so far. |
| The home session lasts for approximately one hour to an hour and half. As there is a lot to take in within that space of time we leave you with a handout, which we have put together and contains what we have covered in the session and a bit more. You will then start to attend the club after your puppy’s second vaccination. Classes are held at Wroughton Parish Hall on Monday evenings for puppies up to 6 months old to start. |
| As we use the kind way of training, please bring your puppy on a nylon / leather collar and lead and we can advise you what the correct wear for your dog is as it gets older. Our puppy training classes are open-ended which means you will not have to wait to start a course and you can carry on attending as long as you like. Your puppy will gradually progress through the classes depending on age. It is lovely to see them progressing through the exercises, whilst learning new and fun ways to stimulate your dog. |
