Best Paw Forward offers 8-week group classes, or 6-week at-home programs – both for puppies and older dogs – for individual clients. Best Paw Forward is dedicated to helping you build a relationship with your dog that helps them make the choices you’d like to see for behaviour that makes them a good family member and all-round canine citizen. Why bring Your Best Friend to Best Paw Forward? If you’

ve just finished Puppy Pre-School and wondering where to next for you and your dog, or you just want your dog to learn good manners and haven’t been able to get him (or her!) to some classes yet, bringing your dog to Best Paw Forward will help your dog to put its best paw forward into the future with you by:

Building on the skills it’s already learned at puppy pre-school, and mastering the basics for those who haven’t been able to learn them yet
Learning more advanced heeling skills to make walks together a pleasure
Teaching reliable recalls
Relax around other dogs through group classes
Helping you and your dog to enjoy learning through play
This is only possible, of course, with your daily commitment to working with your dog to build its good manners and skills. A few minutes of training, a few times a day, doesn’t take long and quickly becomes something you both look forward to– it can be a lot of fun! In small class sizes, you and your dog receive personalised attention with professional and supportive tuition, and your dog is encouraged to enjoy learning without feeling overwhelmed. Our lives are full of commitments. If you can’t make the classes on the day and times they’re offered, your best friend can learn how to put its best paw forward at home with the family. Additional fees apply to home-schooling. Obedience classes are offered through an 8-week course.

When the training session just isn’t working …
Take time out, try to identify the issue, and let your dog relax and take stock of their surroundings.
Be their safe space when they’re having a ‘bad fur day’, and while you might have to stop work for that session, you’ve reinforced your leadership bond with your dog, making your next training moment more powerful.

To the memory of silent footsteps
That beside us once did fall
We pause but for a moment
And in reverence do recall

For the hand that held the leash
They served our country well
Therefore we who do remain
Will their stories ever tell.

Some did come home
Along with us, tails held high
While others left empty collars
And in foreign soil now silently they lie

They are forever our guardian angels
Clad in soft and coloured fur
As present now in our hearts
As they ever and always were.

- To The War Dog by Christopher Dion

The Life of Edgar: Edgar Turns One Today As well as being a solemn day for Australians, Anzac Day is also Edgar’s birthday! Happy Birthday to one of the happiest, best-hearted dogs I know.

Would you like your dog to Go To Their Mat and Settle down on it? Best Paw Forward’s Advanced Obedience Course will teach you this art! To book your place, go to https://bestpawforwardbathurst.com.au/book-now/

An example of Positive Puppy Play! These two puppies took a break during class with Best Paw Forward to play. It looks wild but is an example of positive play between dogs: note the relaxed curve to their bodies, the give-and-take, and frequent, self-imposed timeouts to prevent play becoming too intense. What beautiful puppies these owners are raising 🐾

The final Group Class of 2023 graduated today! The past eight weeks have seen this little group take their dogs a long way, overcoming distractions and learning hurdles with confidence while everyone made new friends. It was a pleasure to see you each week! Well done everyone.

The Life of Edgar: - Puppies Need Structured Freedom … Puppies simply don’t have enough self-control to have good manners away from their crate or playpen. Edgar has his own mat to go to during human meal times … 🐾 #bestpawforwardbx #thelifeofedgar #puppylife

The Life of Edgar: Puppies Need Sleep! - puppies need uninterrupted sleep (and lots of it) to help them grow into healthy, settled dogs. A crate can be a safe haven for them to nestle in with favourite toys or a blanket as they rest away from disturbances.
