My name is Sharon and I am the main instructor for most
of the courses. I have around 12 years experience with dogs and
have trained with the ADTB (Academy of Dog Training and Behaviour), teaching
classes locally since 2006. I have mainly owned "rescue" dogs, and both
of my current dogs are regular participants in agility. I believe
that basic training is essential for a family pet and will help to build a
bond between you and your dog which is based on mutual respect.
I would hope to provide you with a better understanding of your dog, how
it learns, and what motivates it to respond well to your requests.
The club uses only positive, reward-based training methods and we
are able to offer training in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere using "fun"
methods of learning. All dogs are different, as are their owners,
and we try, as far as possible, to cater for individual needs - class sizes
are kept small for this reason. There are many training classes in
the area and it is a good idea to investigate them all before making a
decision. It is worthwhile finding out about the instructor, their
experience and their qualifications for teaching you. You are being a
responsible dog owner in considering a training course and we hope that you
will find this club suitable for your needs.
There are several courses available from puppy
socialisation through to more advanced dog training lessons; young handlers classes and
one-to-one sessions. All of the training is aimed primarily at family pets, but I am
able to point you in the right direction if you are considering
obedience competitions, or aiming for a particular discipline such as gun
dog training, agility, fly ball, and so on. A brief guide to the courses
are listed below, and further details and enrolment forms can be either emailed
or posted to you. Please feel to contact us if you have any questions
or require further information. All classes run for appromimately
an hour with time set aside for questions and to discuss any problems that you
may be experiencing.
