WHY GROUP TRAINING?
Group sessions are great for providing socialisation in a supervised environment with the appropriate age group for your dog.
We teach you and your dog many life skills and behaviours that will be useful in everyday life.
Group Class also provides an opportunity to talk about any issues you may be having as a group and how to work on solutions.
Baby Puppy Program - 4 week program (6-12 weeks age approximately at start of program)
Includes training equipment required.
Available to all puppies between 6 and 12 weeks old. The program caters for puppies who are at a stage that is considered critical for their learning and development. The experiences that they are exposed to at this stage, ultimately shape and influence behaviour for the rest of their life. Puppies will be gradually exposed to different stimuli that is unfamiliar to them such as other dogs, people, noises and places in a controlled and positive way.
As their guardian, you will also have the opportunity to learn about topics of interest and relevance.
