YOUTH CLUB

The course is designed for puppies and dogs over 6 months that have attended Puppy School, or previously completed positive reward based foundation training with My Complex

Canine wishing to learn a bit more! We will introduce new training techniques

as well as build on those already learnt.

​

When your puppy gets older the world becomes a very exciting place, during this time it can be hard to get their attention, you may find they have selective hearing and that you are no longer the most exciting thing in their world.

​

Don’t panic! This course will help you to build your dog’s ability to;

Focus on you out and about!

Look & move away from things that are exciting!

Be calmer around distractions!

 

The course will cover the below training areas 

Relaxing calmly on a boundary – train your dog to love their bed!

Building self-control – leave and drop cues

Building ability to disengage - from distractions

Loose lead walking – dealing with distractions out and about

Recall – games to encourage close proximity to you.

Distance control – emergency stop and distance positions

Manners – excitement around doorways and gates

​​

Class numbers will remain small (4-5 dogs), in order to allow time for coaching and individual feedback.

This course runs for six weeks, each session lasting around one hour.

​

You will receive weekly training handouts and access to video reminders of the exercises to help you to practice in between classes.

At the end of the course you will receive a rosette & certificate of achievement.

​

Please note: Group classes are not suitable for every dog, a group environment might not be the best option for your dog to learn if they are worried by dogs or people, you may want to consider private 1:1 Training. If you are unsure of what option will be best for you, please contact me prior to booking.
