I have a Foundation Science Degree in Veterinary Nursing and have been a qualified nurse for over 10 years. I have an Advanced Certificate in Canine Veterinary Nursing which covers dog stress, behaviour and training. I believe that having a well trained and socialised dog not only makes them a healthier and happier dog but also creates a massive bond between owner and dog. We currently offer two different types of positive reward based dog classed which are based at Weston-On-Trent Village Hall. The Puppy Socialisation Classes run for a 4 week course and are suitable for puppies ranging from after their 1st vaccinations up to the age of 6 months. We cover socialisation with dogs, people and children, the vets and many other things. We also start to learn basic commands, health checking and behavioural problems. The Dog Obedience Classes are a beginner class and are based on the Kennel Club Good Citizen Scheme Bronze Award. These are run for an 8 week course and are available for dogs over the age of 6 months old. These are group sessions and dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds and behaviour are able to attend these courses. They cover all basic obedience such as sit, down, stand, walking to heel, recall, wait and much more. Finally we offer a 121 service for people after that more personal experience. This involves a 2 hour initial consultation to work on the concerns as well as a full written training plan and continued phone support. these are available at requested locations.
