FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING, I COME TO YOU
NEW FOREST | SOUTHAMPTON
Are you feeling frazzled by your puppy's constant biting?
Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice you've read and nothing seems to be working
Do you find it difficult to commit to a class because your weekends are full with family or work commitments?
If you got a small-breed puppy, you might be finding it harder than you imagined it would be. But smaller puppies don't means smaller problem. In fact it's especially important to get it right now to prevent common small dog problems that often get worse when they reach adolescence.
I've tried using treats but my puppy won't listen
Reward based training isn't about just throwing treats around and hoping for the best. Your choice of reward, your timing and delivery can all make things better or worse.
While it's tempting to pick a small puppy up when they don't listen, overhandling at this age is one of the chief reasons for small dogs starting to bite hard when they're older
But surely my puppy needs to be in a group class so they can get used to other dogs?
For a small breed puppy it can be quite unnerving being in a class with boisterous puppies who are twice their size and weight. They can often be too overwhelmed or distracted to learn.
Puppy socialisation and training is about your puppy learning to feel confident around different dogs and people. It's also about building your relationship with them so you don't end up with a dog that wants to run off and play with every dog they see.
Here's why private puppy training might be the best choice for you and your puppy
You might prefer one-to-one coaching to big groups and you'll have more time for questions
Avoid missing the crucial window for puppy socialisation because your puppy hasn't completed their vaccinations yet
Puppy training takes place at your home and on your local walks so you'll learn how to handle real life distractions like the New Forest ponies and cows, other dogs and children playing.
Get a puppy training plan specially tailored for small breed dogs to help them develop into a calm and confident adult, doing things on their own four paws
Flexible scheduling for your puppy training lessons - ideal if you work shifts, have to work around children or if you don't drive
