PUPPY CLASSES IN AUCKLAND


Puppy preschool classes are for puppies from 8-13 weeks old on their first class, they must have proof of their vaccination status.

Puppies need to have had their first vaccination. 

These classes teach basic cues such as loose lead walking, sit, stay, down, come and drop it.  Socialisation and understanding dog communication.

Caring for your puppy will be easier with understanding health and dental care, crate training and parasite control.

The classes are run at Ellerslie Vets, a clean, indoor environment provides a safe venue for your puppies to learn until they are fully vaccinated.

Positive, reward-based training will help build bonds between you and your puppy and offers socialisation and understanding dog communication.

Classes are run at Ellerslie vets on Saturdays, 3PM or 4.30PM

Advanced Puppy Class - held at 10am on Sunday mornings at Ellerslie vet clinic, advanced puppy classes build on the knowledge gained in puppy preschool classes. With focus on loose lead walking, recall and more skills using engagement and focus around distractions.

SEPARATION TRAINING

Help your dog to be comfortable home alone. Do you and your dog struggle to be apart? Does your dog cause destruction and tension in your home when you need to leave them behind?
 
Having a dog with separation anxiety is a struggle in many ways and can easily be challenging and overwhelming.
With no more ‘sneaking out’ or letting them ‘cry it out’, using proven, positive training methods through Julie Naismiths SA Pro program, I can help you and you dog build up the time they can remain home under their threshold of worry.
 
With a 4 week support and training program, you will receive Zoom calls, WhatsApp support and changing training plans 5 days a week. I will be beside you and your dog, helping you both on your separation training journey.

 
CO-OPERATIVE CARE

Does your dog struggle with veterinary visits, medications, grooming and handling?
Cooperative care is building up the steps to give your dog the confidence to allow handling with their consent. Using these proven Fear Free techniques, you and your dog will build communication and trust together, being a willing participant, rather than tolerating or simply being forced to cope.
With this training, we teach body handling, muzzle training, and learn how to build confidence at the vet. Using a chin rest, our dogs learn a simple start and stop cue so they no longer need to resort to their previous communication, whether running away, hiding, or snapping to make people stop.
With a veterinary background and training qualifications on top, I can help you and your dog learn new handling skills together.
