This class runs from 7:30 and lasts for round about an hour (timing is dependent on the number of dogs present), and is suitable for both puppies and older dogs that require all of their basic training. The classes cover: sit, stand and down, stay, walking on a loose lead, recall (coming back when called), food or toy refusal and handler examination of the dog for health. Puppies (dogs under 12 months of age) are eligible for the Kennel Club Puppy Foundation Assessment (click here for more details) - successful completion will result in the awarding of a rosette and certificate. Dogs older than 12 months will be prepared for the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Bronze Award (click here for more details).
