Beginners 6 week course: The Beginners class is a good start for both puppies and adult dogs requiring basic obedience training or for people wanting more control over their dog. You can expect to learn how to play with your dog, acceptable games to play, how to get your dog to come when called (recall), sit, down, leave it, walking on a loose lead, grooming, handling and health checks. A certificate is presented on the last session.

Improvers 6 week course: The Improvers class is perfect for those who wish to learn more than the basics and progress to a higher standard with their dog. Here you can expect to achieve a sit and down stay with lots more distractions, an emergency stop and impulse control, among other things. A certificate is presented at the end.

Rural Dogz - come when called: The Rural Dogz course is for those having difficulty getting their dog to return to them when called (first time!). Here we teach a range of techniques designed to improve your dog’s recall and control his/her impulse to chase or run off. A good recall means your dog responds to his name within 2 seconds and we feel that if this is in place, your dog is safer in every respect.

Urban Dogz - loose lead walking: The Urban Dogz course is an opportunity for your dog to learn loose lead walking in a challenging environment. Here we usually encounter pigeons, prams, ducks, crowds of people, lifts, stairs, trains, small children, bicycles and more!! This is a fantastic course that all dogs should experience so they are able to cope well in any busy environment they may encounter in the future.

Puppy Walking Group: The Puppy walk is for all puppy's from 12 weeks up to 6 months of age. These walks give your puppy important social skills with other dogs and allows the puppy's to play off lead in a safe area. It is the ideal place to build up your confidence to allow your puppy off the lead, perhaps for the first time and focuses on teaching your puppy to come when called.

Walking Group: The Walking group is for all dogs from 6 months of age with no upper age limit. This group is similar to the puppy group and also teaches your dog to come when called and walk on a loose lead. An ideal addition to our classes.

Dog Agility: The Dog Agility class will be up and running in September. An ideal class for all owners who want to have some fun with their dog. Put your name on our list now.

K9 Pool Party: The K9 Pool Party is an ideal opportunity to teach your dog to swim, enjoy the water and play fetch in the pool. Owners can dive in too.

Private Tuition: Private Tuition is ideal if you cannot get to a class or need help in a specific area. One to one sessions can provide a quick and effective way of helping you to train your dog where the problems are happening. Ideal if your dog; wont come when called, pulls on the lead, jumps up at visitors, escapes from the front door, steals food, toilets indoors, chews the furniture or simply won't do as he's told. Whatever the problem, one to one sessions can help you. All sessions are tailor made to the individual dog and owner and are conducted in your home or local walk.

Behaviour Problems: A Behaviour consultation is needed when your dog is displaying inappropriate behaviour. This can be aggression towards dogs or people, resource guarding, fears & phobias, tail chasing, barking, seperation distress, guarding territory, chasing cars/joggers etc.

Residential Dog Training: The Residential Training is ideal if you don't have time to train your dog or simply want us to train your dog for you! Your dog won't need to go into kennels, which can cause undue stress to the dog meaning he can't learn.
At Adolescent Dogs we provide a unique service whereby your dog can either be collected and dropped off at your home each day or remain in the comforts of the trainers home throughout the duration of the course. Our course carries a lifetime guarantee, so you'll never have to pay for more training. Ideal for puppy's and older dogs.
