WHEN WE DO IT
Sunday morning start times:
Starter class begins at 10:00am until 10:45am.
Stages 1-5 start at 10:45am.
Thursday evenings all classes start at 7:30pm

Our training is continuous, you can carry on until you have achieved the standard you want and be able to go at your own pace. We do not run courses over specific number of weeks with set starting dates, you can join at any time.

WHAT WE DO
Pet training, socialising & fun agility. Getting your Shepherd used to training and meeting other people and dogs is important at an early age, so we run a starter class so you can join as soon as they have had their initial inoculations.

OUR TRAINIING METHODS
Our training methods involve the use of toys and treats to encourage our Shepherds to want to learn, rather than have to. We do not promote harsh training methods. Having said this we don't let them get away with blue murder and still believe in being in control.

Our lessons are broken up with lots of play for the dogs to try and keep them interested. We don't like to see them looking bored and doing flat heelwork.

Our main aim is pet training, however, we have had members go on to shows, and our progress tests are geared to let you know what sort of things to expect.

We also have full scale agility equipment, and encourage the Shepherds to use it from an early age. The equipment drops to puppy heights to ensure no damage is done to young limbs and we have found the younger they learn to cope with the equipment, the less intimidated they are by things like bridges in the real world.

WHAT WE CHARGE
£1 per Starter training session.
£2 per session for all other classes.
Dog club membership is £3.50 or £5.50 per year for single or joint.
Plus £2 initial enrolment.
