Runs 20th, 27th September & 11th, 18th, 25th October 11.15am-12.15pm

There is no class on 4th October as we will be at Chelsea Dog Day @ Duke of York Square, King’s Road & you’re invited!

The aim of the course is to guide you through the early stages of the tricky teens, providing you with the tools to maintain your dog’s focus, help them to control their impulses, and advance their reliability of known and brand new behaviours.

Class sizes are small to allow plenty of space to work, and for Nicky to help each of you 1:1.

The atmosphere will be relaxed, fun, enjoyable and social, and as always, behaviours will be taught using positive reinforcement only.

Plenty of Q&A time with Nicky will allow you to ask questions and share experiences of the tricky teens in a group setting.

Each week you will receive a recap of what was taught in class to work on in your own time and will guide you if you have to miss a class at some point.

The course will include:

• How to use a clicker as a game changer for focus and fast learning

• Loose lead walking off-lead with turns and distractions

• Auto sit by your side

• Emergency stop & drop

• Ring the bell

• Push buttons & respond to their verbal cues

• A two minute sit-stay and down-stay with distance

• Leave it - off-lead and applied to multiple distractions

• Controlled greetings with people (no jumping up) and other dogs

• Weekly tricks including: Spin, leg weaves & go around

• Spin, sit & down on verbal cue

• Join us at Chelsea Dog Day on the 4th October and show off your dog’s skills!

• Graduate on 25th October with a certificate, rosette and a well trained dog
