Rachael, who will be leading the sessions, is a fully accredited Canine Training Instructor with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council and a proud member of the Professional Association of Canine Trainers, so you can feel confident that you and your dog are in safe hands.
The session is hands-on and interactive, with plenty of opportunity to practice exercises, all of which have been designed to be fun and engaging for both you and your dog. Each exercise is explained clearly so you understand not just what to do, but why it works and how to apply it out on walks.
We want to make sure that this course is accessible to all, while fairly compensating our professionals for their valuable time and experience. So, we are subsidising the usual £30 price of similar courses to make it £10 per dog. This is non-refundable, unless the course is cancelled by us or Goodall Dog Training.
The session will take place outdoors in a grassy area – the ground is slopy and uneven in places. If you have any questions about accessibility at this venue, please contact Rachael so she can advise.
Maximum of 8 dogs, and a minimum of 4 for the session to run. One dog per person – dog handlers must be over 18. Children may attend but they must be accompanied by an adult.
This class is not suitable for fearful and/or dogs who are reactive in the form of barking, lunging or growling at other dogs or humans. For support with this please email Goodalls at info@goodalldogtraining.com
Your dog must be fit and healthy to participate. They must also be fully vaccinated or titre tested to attend.
Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring sturdy, waterproof footwear. You will also need:
Important note about dog walking equipment: We cannot allow the use of prong collars, shock collars (sometimes called e-collars), choke chains, slip leads, or any other kinds of aversive equipment at our workshops. These tools pose safety risks and fall outside of our ethical guidelines. You are still welcome to join us using a standard harness, and we are happy to discuss why we take this stance and ethical alternatives.
