Dog Agility Training classes starting in June. Agility works both physically and mentally to stimulate and tire our dogs out in the best way. Learning how to get your dog to go over, under, around, or through different obstacles as you call out directions, while running to keep up with them, is the best kind of all-purpose exercise for you both.
Please private message me if you are interested.

Teaching your dog to sit is a great place to start with your training. This can and will be a really valuable behaviour for them to learn.

Eg: Teaching your dog to sit at roadside kerbs will make crossing the roads safer and also asking your dog to sit when greeting people means they are less likely to jump up..... A problem I see in a lot of young puppies.......

Dog training is crucial for puppies because it helps them to develop good behavior, socialisation skills, and communication with their owners. Here are some reasons why dog training is important for puppies:

Communication: Training helps puppies learn how to communicate with their owners through commands and body language. This is important for building a strong bond and understanding between the puppy and their owner.

Socialisation: Early socialisation is crucial for puppies to learn how to interact with other dogs and people. Training provides opportunities for positive experiences that help puppies develop confidence and good behaviour around others.

Behaviour: Training can help to prevent and correct bad behaviour in puppies such as excessive barking, biting, chewing, and jumping. This leads to a better-behaved and more enjoyable dog for both the owner and those around them.

Safety: Training helps to keep puppies safe by teaching them commands such as "come" or "stay" which can prevent them from running into dangerous situations.

Training is an essential part of a puppy's development and provides numerous benefits for their physical and mental well-being.

Consistency is key: Puppies thrive on routine and repetition, so it's important to be consistent in your training methods. This means using the same commands and techniques every time, and rewarding good behavior consistently.

Positive reinforcement is effective: Punishing your puppy for bad behavior can be counterproductive and may cause anxiety or fear. Instead, focus on rewarding good behavior with treats, praise, and affection. This will encourage your puppy to repeat the behavior and will strengthen your bond with them.

Start early: Puppies have a short attention span and learn quickly, so it's important to start training as early as possible. This will help establish good habits and prevent bad behaviour from becoming ingrained.

Dogs are such intelligent animals and they never stop learning. They can grasp rules and behaviour well into their older age. Once you stop working with your dog they can easily forget the most basic training.

Dogs need clear rules that can be adhered to consistently!!

The trick to training an older dog (who may have picked up some bad manners over the years) is to teach them to think about what behaviors they should do to earn a reward and how to respond when he is asked to perform that behavior.....

It is so important you start the training in your dog as young as possible because the only way your puppy will ever learn to respond to your commands is if you can learn to attract his attention with lots of encouragement.

My goal is to help you to break the barriers of communication and to show you the fastest, easiest, most comfortable and effective methods of training your dog.

Simplicity is best and keeping it simple is always the best way to learn!
