Puppy Training Classes
In our puppy training and socialisation classes we aim to start you and your new dog off in the right direction by following the Kennel Club Good Citizen Scheme.
ABC For Dogs supplies puppy training classes and dog training in medway, Kent.
Puppy obedience classes or Puppy training and socialization classes are a great way to socialise your puppy in a controlled environment and meet other puppy owners.
The classes are designed for dogs from 12 weeks up to 6 months old. We concentrate on structured socialisation, basic dog obedience, fun and games and endeavor to help you with any behaviour problems you have along the way.
We will also be on hand to help and offer advice on any dog behaviour issues you may be having at home.
Only reward-based puppy training methods are used in our Puppy Classes - Treats, toys, praise and play.
Your puppy will learn:
- Come when called (name and recall).
- Sit, lie down, stand on command.
- Start to walk on a loose lead without pulling.
- Get used to being handled and examined.
- 'Stay'.
- 'Settle'.
- 'Gentle’ (taking food from hands gently).
- 'Leave / Exchange'.
- Socialize with adults, children, and other puppies.
- Greet people appropriately without jumping up
Puppies will be allowed to interact in carefully controlled small groups to ensure they learn good manners around other puppies, do not get scared, and do not learn to play roughly or aggressively. Puppies will be matched for size, age, and experience, and play will be carefully supervised to ensure that all puppies learn to be confident with others.
Please note - in some classes, the mix of puppies may make it impossible to conduct puppy play sessions safely. Puppy play sessions will only be offered if they can be run without causing harm.
