Loose-lead and Life Skills
Friendly, confidence building course for dogs of all ages and their humans.
Description
Build a safe, harmonious relationship with your dog through six fun, practical, weekly training sessions. With a maximum of 6 dogs in the class, classes are calm, there is plenty of space for your dog and training is focused. Together we’ll work through everyday challenges, from helping your dog focus on you, to building a reliable, speedy recall and enjoying calmer, more relaxed lead walks. Strengthen your bond, learn new skills side by side, and grow your confidence as a team. With a calm, happy dog who understands what you’re asking, you can enjoy chilled, stress free walks and a lifestyle that feels good for both ends of the lead.
