Mixed Group Classes Working Towards Your Own Goals

The awards offer five (5) levels of achievement for Puppy, Foundation, Improver, Intermediate and Advanced awards, with each award building on the skills and achievements of the previous course to ensure progression and fun.

​

The courses are all reward based and force free, helping you build your relationship with your dog in a fun and supported environment.

​

The course is run as a mixed group (so you may have other dogs and owners working at different levels) of dogs and owners allowing us to run the class in four (4) weekly sessions, keeping it fun and rewarding.

You progress through the course objectives at your own pace and can work on achievements in class or by submitting them via video from home, making it convenient and fun to achieve each goal.

​

Each course consists of a set of objectives (criterion) that your and your dog must achieve. Once demonstrated satisfactorily each objective gets  signed off until you complete the award.  Once achieved you will receive you rosette and certificate to celebrate your achievement.

​

Each course is run over 4 weeks, however you can achieve awards quicker or slower - for instance you may achieve your Foundation award in 3 weeks, meaning you can move on to your Improver objectives in week 4. If it takes longer than 4 weeks to achieve all of your objectives, you can simply sign up to additional courses until you have achieved all of your objectives, goals and awards.

 

Each weekly class will be one hour in duration at one of our training venues. Classes can be attended by all family members, including children, to provide consistency throughout your dog's development.​
