Mixed Age Beginners Class

The in-person Mixed Age Beginners classes are suitable for Puppies and Dogs of any age who have completed and are up-to-date with their vaccinations.


Overview

We teach through fun exercises and training games, and use motivational, reinforcing methods.  Each week there are brand new skills to learn as well as building on the reliability of exercises from past weeks.  

Classes are held outside at our training venue – The Obelisk Centre, 400 Obelisk Rise, Kingsthorpe, Northampton, NN2 8UE

Certificates are awarded on completion of the course!

The course runs for 6 weeks with each session being 1 hour.   

On completion of the course, dogs are invited to join the Continuation Classes, where a wide range of training activities including dog sports, scent work and obedience can be explored!

Booking

Jack Russell with dog training class certificate

Dogs attending classes must be comfortable when in close proximity to other dogs and people, and must not be persistent barkers as this can be disruptive to the class.  If for these reasons your dog is not able to join the in-person classes, private training or behaviour sessions are the appropriate options.
