TRAINING CLASSES
Here at Waggy's Dog Training we pride ourselves on making our classes as relaxed and enjoyable as we can. We follow the Kennel Club Good Citizen Awards, where dogs and handlers are able to achieve their potential and receive certificates and rosettes.
However, as well as covering all of the Kennel Club Good Citizen Awards we offer pet dog obedience training for those owners who prefer not to have to take a test at the end of the course. We offer additional advice and guidance in all aspects of bringing a puppy up, settling in a rehomed or rescued dog, and ensuring that both owners and dogs have the best relationship they can and a happy, enjoyable life together.
We believe that training a dog should be fun experience for all and we achieve this by adding in fun activities, such as agility taster sessions and games. We love nothing better than to see happy and relaxed dogs and owners enjoying their training experience together.
