Life Skills Programme
The everyday skills that make life with your dog easier, in one practical course.
What it is
A practical group course focused on the real world skills that make daily life with your dog smoother: settling, manners, coping calmly with the things that crop up in normal life. Learn skills that help dogs fit into your every day life easier.
Who it is for
Owners who want a calmer, more manageable dog in everyday situations, and who like learning in a supportive group. A strong fit for dogs who are past the basics but still find normal life a bit much.
Suitable for beginners, dogs who know the basics but need to work on more.
What is included
- Weekly training handouts so you can work on each skill between sessions.
- A bag of training treats to start you off.
- A WhatsApp support group across the course.
