Training

‘Properly trained, man can be dog’s best friend’

Training should be fun for both you and your dog regardless of age, breed or personality that is why we only use positive reward based training methods.

Using positive methods to train your dog means you ignore the behaviours you do not like and reward the behaviours you like.  Rewards may be a food treat, favourite toy, pats or verbal praise when the dog performs the ‘good’ behaviour.

So if you have a puppy ready to learn the basics, grab your dog’s harness and let’s get started!

Please note at this time, Paws & Relax currently have no group classes running for the remainder of 2020.

 

Puppy School

Our Puppy Day School Program is like ‘private school for your puppy’.  It is a combination of day care and training for puppies under 6 months of age to provide you with the best process for helping puppies during the critical period of socialisation.  The pups will romp and play with similar-age pals in our safe, clean, loving environment and develop life skills that will benefit them and their families for life. 

The routine at Puppy Day School mimics the ‘school day’ for human kids.  Trainers are with the puppies from 9:00am to 4:00pm on the designated day.  Each school day consists of playing with the other puppies, one-on-one training sessions with the trainer, group training sessions, and nap time.  

The cost of the program is $450 upfront, or $100 weekly, and includes training, socialisation, habituation, a school bag, daily report on their day, and resources for working on common puppy issues at home.   

The program is currently conducted on Friday’s and runs for 5 consecutive weeks. Get in touch for more information on our next class availability.

Your puppy’s day will include a variety of the following over the 5-week program: 

  • Supervised play with other dogs and puppies
  • Basic skills such as sit, go to a mat, come when called etc
  •  Handling (touching ears and paws using treats) 
  •  Getting puppy used to husbandry activities done at the vet 
  • Preparing for grooming (exposure to clipping nails, towel drying, grooming tub, clippers, or dryers)
  • Exposure to people (people in hats and glasses)
  • Getting comfortable with various noises like fireworks, thunder, barking dogs etc.
  • Interactive puzzle games to stimulate their puppy brain and improve coordination
  •  One-to-one human time to ensure positive association and teach polite greeting skills
  • Rest time in a quiet enclosure or crate
