Puppy classes offer a wonderful opportunity for you and your puppy to embark on a shared learning journey while introducing you both to contemporary training techniques. These interactive sessions are designed for both puppies and their guardians. You’ll discover how to effectively utilise food rewards through positive reinforcement. This approach pairs a reward with a behaviour, increasing the likelihood that the behaviour will be repeated. Reward-based training promotes reliable responses and fosters a relationship with your puppy based on love, trust, and understanding.
We are running our Puppy Pre-School at Nommees Pet Deli in Burnham-on-Sea.
Our next course starts Monday, June 2nd at 10 am. This is a five-week course costing £95. It will be run in conjunction with The Kennel Club Puppy Foundation guidelines.
To book your place, please download and complete the puppy form here. Your form and payment will book your place.
We also have puppy sessions at our training field which is £90 for 4 sessions & puppies need to be under 20 weeks (5 months). The first session is a one-to-one at our training field and private woods. This is a great opportunity for your puppy to explore the new surroundings without other puppies and for you to ask questions about any concerns you might be having. Your puppy will get the opportunity to meet one of our dog team at this session too.
The following 3 sessions will be in a group with other dogs or puppies. We will look at recall, lead walking, and all that comes with living with a puppy.
All our training is outside so appropriate clothing is necessary and in the winter months, we do have a shelter we use.
You will also work towards The Kennel Puppy Foundation Award.
