Pet Dog Training
Watchdogs Ltd are able to offer pet owners a range of services.
Training can take the form of either group classes or on a more personal one to one basis.
Dog Classes
Our dog training courses last for 10 weeks and once the course has started it is closed to new applicants. This means that everybody starts at the same level and the instruction can follow a clear path. We have set, achievable goals for each class. This means that dogs and handlers progress easily and do not get out of their depth.
The same instructor will usually take each class for the 10 weeks which minimises the likely hood of confusion for dogs or handlers.
We start our puppy/beginner classes with very simple exercises, for example, basic heelwork, sit stays and puppy recalls.
Our more advanced classes will do heelwork off lead, drop on recall, retrieves and sendaways. Our training will get your dogs to a very high standard. This will ensure that you have control under any situation.
We also run classes incorporating the highly successful Kennel Club Good Citizen Scheme.
As you advance through the classes (at your own pace!) we will teach many different exercises, this will give you more control over your dog and develop a better relationship between you and your pet.
We try to make our training fun for both you and your dog, because let’s face it if you don’t enjoy it you not going to do it.
