Our next 3-Week Puppy Socialisation and Exposure Course will be held on Sat April 11th 4pm over at Tilehurst Village Hall.

Available to puppies under the age of 6 months at the starting date.

This is an incredible opportunity for you to attend socialisation classes, creating positive experiences and associations whilst building confidence and developing resilience to set up your puppy for life.

Socialisation is so much more than just how many different dogs you can introduce your puppy to. It is important that during your puppy’s early learning period they can explore different sights, sounds, textures and smells and we understand the importance of gentle and controlled exposure to these stimuli to prevent flooding and create positive experiences.

Our course is designed to develop resilience in preparation for life in our world, how to safely interact with other dogs and also to teach handlers important information such as canine body language and stress indicators so you can advocate for your puppy in any situation.

If you have any questions regarding this course, then get in contact with us on Facebook or via our website www.smartdogacademy.co.uk

What a brilliant way to kickstart the week with a positive 5 star review left on our Google profile!

Here's what one of our fabulous clients had to say:

"We have been training our girl, Bella with Matt, Karen and Georgia throughout her puppyhood, taking advantage of being able to expose her to as much as possible and help her be the best dog she can be. All of these guys, and their volunteers, are absolutely brilliant and I would recommend them to anyone. They give clear, precise training methods which is fun for both owners and their dogs and help build up on the skills in a methodical way. They are all willing to offer support and ideas to assist with anything you may need. We would like to give you a really big thank you for everything you have done and are doing. Bringing Bella to you was the best decision we ever made!"

Thank you for your kind words from all of the Smart Dog Team, they mean so much to us as a small business and help give reassurance to new clients that they are in safe hands with us 🫶

5-Star Review! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Another fantastic start to the week with the latest 5-star Google review and feedback we have received regarding our Co-operative Care Course. Thank you so much for your lovely words.

Here's what they had to say:

"We weren’t entirely sure what to expect when we first booked onto the Co-operative Care Course but we knew it was important to expose our puppy to everything it offered. Our previous dog was always frightened of the vets so we were keen to do things differently this time — and this course delivered everything and more.

Never did I think we would be able to introduce our six-month-old puppy to a muzzle in such a calm, positive way. The desensitisation to grooming and veterinary equipment was incredibly well thought out and throughout the course Georgia and Matt were always on hand to offer advice, reassurance and support whenever it was needed.

What really stood out was the emphasis on consent and trust. If our puppy was unsure, we simply stopped — no pressure, no rushing. This approach has been invaluable in helping him build confidence at his own pace and feel safer with handling and unfamiliar equipment.

This course has given us the tools to support our puppy through things he may find worrying and although he’s still unsure at times, we can clearly see his confidence growing. We’re so grateful for what we’ve learned and would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to build trust and understanding with their dog. 🐾"
