Pooch Paws
This regular workshop addresses gundog training concepts and exercises needed for gundog work. It is also suitable for pet owners that just want to get the best out of their dogs and is open to non-gundog breeds.
9am: intermediate/advanced dogs
Learning gundog training can help to have a better behaved dog when out on walks especially if you have a hunting dog.
New students: this will teach you about gundog training through the power of positive reinforcement and clicker (marker) training. You will learn how to obtain base behaviours and shape these behaviours.
Previous Students: you will build on previous exercises to strengthen and enhance your training. Content will be adjusted for students that have previously attended.
