S4E6 Teaching Puppy Training Classes

The Northern Aspect managed to turn her microphone on this week...after a nudge! The usual moan about the joys of ageing including nasal waxing and generally getting hairier! A catch up which no one is interested in including running classes under the Golden Arches is followed by a look at running puppy classes. Do you have the right knowledge? What's the difference between adult dog classes? Where do you train? Allowing interaction and causing more damage than the positives you create! Puppy training to perfection...how to be the best that you can be. A puppy party or a puppy education?! A holistic approach to raising a sensible dog via owner education and breed specific knowledge. A brief technical issue where the Londoner froze...a quick chat about dog law and equipment for puppies. The 5 minute exercise rule explored...exercise Vs socialisation / habituation. Managing people is way harder than managing dogs! Sensible rules around the house for psychological or physiological development. Nature and nurture - creating neutrality and raising the adult dog that you are aiming for. Anyway...that's a bit of it. Enjoy (or not)?! ----- oOo ----- Lez and Ross have both been in the industry professionally for well over 20 years and each has been involved with dogs for over 40 years. Whilst sensibly they have stayed away from the ‘limelight’ regarding TV offers, they have regularly been on national and local radio, spoken at national events at NDWA, CFBA, and Kennel Club / Crufts events as well as bespoke speaking engagements for the Dog Safety Education Executive (DogSEE). Ross wrote for Dogs Monthly Magazine for over 12 years and Lez was the first lady feature writer for a national Shooting Magazine (both Sporting Gun and Sporting Shooter). They were also 'study buddies' and were the first in the UK to achieve a Masters Degree (Professional Practice) in Canine Behaviour and Psychology in 2011. They work well together and apart, support and work with dog rescue organisations and train professional dog trainers and behaviourists. Different as chalk and cheese, but maybe not as different as they like to think.
