Good Citizen Dog Scheme Classes
Our Good Citizen Dog Scheme Training Classes are for anyone who wants to enhance their relationship with their dog as well as improve their dog's basic obedience, including behaviours such as recall, loose lead walking, stays, road walks, food manners, etc.
Perhaps an adolescent dog, who completed their puppy classes and need a refresher course? Perhaps an older rescue dog that needs to learn more appropriate behaviours? Or perhaps a dog and owner that enjoy training and love to achieve things together.
These classes run as 8 week blocks with the opportunity to take either the Bronze, Silver or Gold GCDS Assessment as the end of the block. If your dog isn't ready at the time you can simply book another 8 week block.
A dog's progress in these classes will be affected by their age, sex, temperament, breed and training history, as well as the time their owner can spend working on the behaviours we teach. We cannot offer any guarantees that a dog will be ready to take the assessment after a 8 week block of sessions, however we can guarantee that we will have covered the teaching of all of the behaviours required to take the assessment.
As well as covering the behaviours required for the awards, the classes will also include fun games for gaining and keeping attention, confidence and focus building activities.
Please Note - These classes are not suitable for dogs that bark, lunge or are uncomfortable around other dogs or people. Please get in touch if you need help to improve these behaviours
