Obedience and Group training sessions are held every Saturday from 1.30pm. We have classes to suit beginners all the way up to advanced levels of training.
At Dog Solutions, we don't run a simple set course over a number of weeks - we have seen that both handlers and their dogs learn at different paces. Our classes are designed so that you decide when you're happy with what you and your dog have achieved, and leave when you have the skills you wanted. We usually find that our furry clients don't want to leave!
Classes run for just under an hour, although it is a good idea to allocate the full hour as questions are answered at the end of each session, and as class sizes are restricted to a maximum of 10 dogs (which ensures no one slips through the cracks), bookings are essential.
Each class consists of obedience training tasks. Your teacher will observe and assist anyone needing help. Additionally each lesson includes socialisation and confidence building activities. You never know what will happen. We may have a team mascot visit, a motorcycle, a mock thunderstorm, or a power tools adventure. Anything could occur! We want your dogs to cope no matter what is going on around them. It builds their trust in you and their ability to cope with new things.
We welcome the whole family at our school because if you are living with a dog then you should know what the training plan is about - direct from the trainer. If the whole family is on the same page then it is much easier for a dog to learn. No one handler per dog rule with us!
You will have your trainers direct phone number so that if you are concerned about anything with your dog, you can speak to your trainer. There is no such thing as a stupid question at Dog Solutions. We are here to help.
