Puppy training is a critical part of every dog's development, learning and socialisation. It is also essential for you as puppy's guardian and care-giver to learn how best to support your puppy, set them up for success and get the very best from them as well as learning how they learn. Puppy School introduces everything needed to begin developing a happy, confident, well-mannered puppy. I teach skills & strategies that make training and learning fun and motivating for both puppy and you and enable you to practice at home and on adventures.

TEENAGE TINKERS
A 6 week course packed full of practical support for anyone with a puppy heading towards adolescence or going through adolescence. Adolescence is the most challenging phase that you and your puppy will go through. It is essential to continue training. Realistic and appropriate expectations are required - adolescents are impulsive and excitable, that's normal! It's the time to ensure that you are setting clear boundaries and expectations through consistent communication while continuing to build a bond based on love, kindness, patience, respect and dignity. Teenage Tinkers will give you the skills to navigate adolescence and enable you to build confidence in your puppy and their abilities. When we approach adolescence with patience we help create a world that is predictable and gentle so that our puppies can grow up to be their best selves. Through reward based training, consistency and fun, I will support you in helping your puppy to make better choices, be less distracted and more calm. Topics covered include: Focus & Engagement Movement, Patterns & Predictability Impulse Control Distractions Social Skills Recall Loose Lead Walking & Lead Skills Suitable for puppies from 20 weeks - 3 years Maximum 4 per class ensuring individual attention, guidance & support.
