WHAT HAPPENS IF IÂ HAVE MORE THAN ONE DOG THAT NEEDS TRAINING?
Prices may vary depending on the service you are booking. Please contact us directly for more information and prices.
HOW MANY DOGS WILL THERE BE IN A GROUP SESSION AND HOW LONG ARE THE SESSIONS?
The groups are limited to a maximum of 6 dogs. By keeping the group sizes smaller, we can dedicate more attention to each participant and their dogs, customising the sessions to suit their specific needs. The size of the group may vary depending on the subject of the class. Each session typically lasts up to 1 hour.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED FOR MY DOG FOR THE SESSIONS?
A well-fitted Y-Front harness and/or a well-fitted collar. Flexi leads, prongs, or E-collars are not permitted. The leads we recommend are a standard 6ft flat lead, an 8ft double-ended training lead, or a slip lead (as long as the slip lead is being used correctly).
​
If any extra equipment is required, depending on the session type, you will be informed prior to the session.
HOW OLD DOES MY DOG NEED TO BE TO RECEIVE TRAINING?
We can train any age dog! We have even trained puppies who can't go for walks yet, through our private home sessions.
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY DOG IS NOT FOOD MOTIVATED / WILL NOT TAKE MY TREATS DURING CLASS?
In this instance, we would use toys, verbal or physical praise, or environmental rewards. We would also try other various high-value food rewards.
​
We sell a variety of treats and enrichment during sessions.
WHAT AREAS DO YOU COVER FOR TRAINING?
We provide training services to locations within a 10-mile radius of L24 3TN. For those residing outside our coverage area, we offer facility-based sessions in Halebank (WA8). Alternatively, we can arrange to travel to your location for an additional fee, based on your dog's training requirements. Any extra charges will be communicated and discussed with you when you make your booking.
In the near future, we will be introducing online versions of some of our services to accommodate those who are located outside our immediate area.
CAN I GET A RECEIPT / INVOICE?
Upon request, we will happily provide you with a receipt/invoice for the services that you have used.
