Congratulations to our first puppy graduates of 2023!
Minnie and Winston learned a marker signal, positive interruptor, to respond to their names, sit, drop, stay, come, leave it, and leash walk. Behaviourally, the dogs learned to relax around other dogs which was highly critical for this class. Both dogs were very stressed and scared when they saw each other for the first time, but over the six weeks with individualised conditioning strategies, both dogs were able to train near each other and even enjoyed their first play at the last lesson.
Their owners are educated in animal learning theory, body language, training, redirective strategies, vet care, AND everyone has made it through the puppy phase in one piece!
A highly successful class overall!
If you have a new puppy or are considering getting a new puppy, we have new classes starting every few weeks. Located at our behavioural vet clinic in Coomera and run by a qualified delta-qualified behaviourist, our classes will set your puppy up to live their happiest and healthiest lives possible.
