Your puppy too could look like this after Luci's puppy training |
This course is designed to give the owner control of their puppy in their home enviroment. Your puppy will learn to walk calmly and happily on the lead, to sit, to stand quietly to be groomed and handled, to lie down, to come when called and to wait where left. This course covers solutions to problems such as housetraining, jumping up, play biting, digging etc.
When is the best time to begin training my dog?
By the time a puppy is 8 weeks old its sensory, motor and central nervous system have reached maturity. It is therefore ready for what ever learning experiences await. We must realise however, that a puppy of thes age should not be expected to behave as an adult dog. It is still EMOTIONALLY immature, and has a very SHORT ATTENTION SPAN.Who should train the dog?
All members of the family need to be involved with the training of the new puppy. Children in particular need special instruction. They can unknowingly cause many of the behavioural problems experienced by families with small children and young puppies. It sounds really dreadful to say that we should NOT play games with our puppies, but this is true, UNTIL we know how to stop the game before the puppy gets out of control.
Children (and adults too!) can unintentionally teach the puppy to nip, bite, chew, chase, jump up, scratch, growl, bark uncontrollably and in general be a pest. This badly brought up puppy will grow into a totally unmanageable dog which the family no longer enjoys.
Dont wait until you have problems, enquire now, and enrol your puppy before it becomes a nuisance and destroys your home and garden.
