SERVICES AND FEES

PUPPY SCHOOL

Puppy Preschool in essential in setting your puppy up with skills for life. Older dogs can certainly be trained but it just takes a lot longer which is why we recommend starting puppy school between 9 and 14 weeks.

My training methods focus on positive reinforcement using no harsh methods. Pups will not only learn basic behaviors, but ensure they learn to socialise responsibly while also being able to practice calm around other dogs.

My aim is to build confidence by teaching owners how best to communicate with their pup in a gentle language they understand.

Our course is 4 hours over 3 weeks and includes a 15 min individual phone consultation to be used at any time prior, during or after the course for up to 6 months.

Course topics include but are not limited to:

*Sit, Stay, Come, Drop, Look, Touch

*Biting

*Jumping up

*Enrichment

*Toilet Training

* Diet and Health

*Destructive Behaviours

*Responsible Socialisation
*Firecracker/ Thunderstorm desensitisation

The ideal personalised puppy package to guarantee success!

Unfortunately with to our new way of living, not all family members can attend Puppy School due to restrictions.

Its proven consistency is key, if everyone in the family is on the same page your puppy will not only learn quicker but be more relaxed and therefore a better learner.

Puppy Star begins with a Pre Puppy Consultation advising you of how best to set up for your new fur-babies arrival.

We meet again after the first week for a 1.5hr hour tailored consultation with the whole family (I encourage extended family also) where you will learn about communication, basic behaviours enrichment and socialisation.

Third meet is a fortnight after for a refresh and questions via Zoom.

All this and 3 playgroup sessions where your pup will learn critical social skills through games and play.
