Teaching a solid off-lead recall is probably the most important thing you can teach your dog. Never let you dog run free if you can't guarantee he'll recall.

Puppies learn so much during positive play and interactions with friends.

I absolutely love seeing puppies growing in confidence and starting to enjoy life! Last week Ruby the GSD x Swiss Shepherd, was very nervous and scared...today she was so much more relaxed and even initiated a game with classmate Leo.

If your puppy is under 5 months old, why not sign him/her up for one of our play dates? Puppies get to play, make new friends and just have fun! Contact us for more information.

Puppy school fun
A new group of puppies started the Early Learning and Socialisation course today. Time for lots of play and making of new friends!
Puppy play time
Puppies learn a great deal from each other. Interacting in a positive way helps develop good social skills.
So many toys, which one should I choose? Just too many options!!

Today 3 month old Nala learnt that not everything that drops to the ground should be grabbed and eaten. She very quickly learnt the word "los" (leave)

It is important to teach puppies how to handle day to day obstacles. Here is Ashley learning how to go up and down stairs.
Dog walks
Two happy clients out and about on their walk. Dog walking is one of the services offered by Take the Lead.

The recall
The recall is one of the most important exercises you should teach your dog. Here is Bella showing everyone how good she is at it.
Brain game puzzles are an excellent way to stimulate your dog mentally. Working out how to get to the hidden treats requires some thinking and problem solving.
