If you are waiting to join a class or just looking for some general information, the following are a few pearls of wisdom from our Trainers
Research the type of dog you and your family want. It is not enough to get a dog just because it looks nice. Remember a 6-week-old fluffy bundle of puppy could turn into a 6 stone adult dog! So it's very important to start your training early in your dog's life for the sake of your family and for the sake of the dog. You will find a trained dog a great pleasure to take for walks and to be with, whereas an untrained dog will become a nuisance to you and to others. So we have put together a few pointers, which we hope will be of some use to you and your dog.
Dogs are pack animals and in the pack there are pack leaders. It is very important that your dog knows who their pack leader is. It must be you and your family - it cannot and must not be the dog!
