Here are the lovely pups that are currently attending the Junior dog training course.
The junior course is specially developed for young puppies between the ages of approximately 6 to 12 months and is suitable for all breeds of dogs it is a natural progression from puppy classes.
There are approximately 10 puppies per course.
Over the six weeks, you will learn
🦮 Touch training.
Touch training is a way of getting your puppy to be more engaged with you and it is done in a fun and motivational way. I will teach you how to use touch training to motivate your puppy. This will prove invaluable as you progress to getting your dog to walk on the lead without pulling.
🦮 Recall.
Getting your dog to be responsive to their name and to come back to you when you call them.
🦮 Follow me
I will show you how to get your puppy to stay close and look at you.This will help to teach your puppy not to pull on the lead and is also a foundation training technique for teaching your pup to come back to you when called.
🦮 Play with a toy
Playing with a toy with you is one of the great joys in the life of a puppy.
I will show you how to harness this natural drive and use it to teach the pup how to retrieve the toy and bring it back to you,
This will become a great way of exercising your pup and another way to engage with your puppy and get him keen to interact with you.
🦮 Prevent jumping up on people
This is an essential discipline to teach your puppy,
Jumping up is learned by the pup at an early age and many people will accept this behavior when the pup is little but when your pup is full-grown it becomes unacceptable.
🦮 Sit. Down. Stand
I will show you how to get your pup to sit to lie down and back into a sit, then stand.
🦮 Stay
Starting your puppy to understand the stay command, aiming for a 30-second stay.
🦮 Examine your pup.
Preparing them for visits to the vets or times when you need to look for an injury. I will teach you how to achieve this in a way that the puppies enjoy and will do willingly.
🦮 At the beginning and end of each class, the puppies will be let off lead to play together.
At the end of this six-week course, my aim is for you and your puppy to achieve a Junior award and to develop your knowledge of engagement training, improving your relationship with your puppy and preparing your pup for any future training throughout their lives.
