WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON
From foundations to reliable behaviour
The six-week course develops the practical skills needed for a well-controlled dog while helping you become a more confident and effective handler.
Training covers a broad range of practical obedience and handling skills and incorporates the training needed for the Royal Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme Bronze Award, with the option to work towards the award.
Training includes:
- Walking calmly on a loose lead
- Remaining controlled when passing through a door or gate
- Walking calmly among people, dogs and distractions
- Staying in position on the lead for one minute
- Returning to the handler when called
- Accepting grooming and routine physical examination
The aim is not competition-style obedience. It is to develop a happy, well-controlled dog and practical skills that you can use in everyday situations.
