Manners Group Classes
(4 - 6 weeks)
(Open Enrolment)
The starting point for dogs who aren't listening yet, and owners who want real results.
Is this you?
-
Your dog ignores you the moment something more interesting appears?
-
You're using treats but it's just not clicking?
-
You want a solid, enjoyable foundation before bad habits set in?
This is where everything starts:
This Foundations class is designed for puppies (from 4 months) heading into adolescence, and adult dogs new to training, or those who need a reset.
Using games and positive reinforcement, you'll learn how to become the most interesting thing in your dog's world.
We build engagement, clear communication, and genuine focus, not just obedience under pressure.
You'll come away with: confidence using food, toys and play as real motivators; the basics of loose lead walking and recall; calm handling and relationship; and a dog who actually wants to work with you.
Plus: Full accompanying notes and videos each week to support your training at home (lifetime access)
Also suits dogs who've done basic training elsewhere and need to strengthen their foundations.
