Adelaide Pet Dog Training

I’ll say it right up front, Adelaide Pet Dog Training is not the cheapest dog school around town. However, keep in mind the old saying ‘you get what you pay for’, and you sure get real value for money with this school. This is truly a POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT ONLY training school!
And you will be required to fill in a rather lengthy, thorough, enrollment form, which deals in all matters concerning your dog.
The small classes are held in the lovely grounds of the Burnside Primary School, where there’s plenty of shade in hot weather and for Diva’s like my gal, it’s under cover when it rains.
All classes have two instructors, a Head Trainer and an Assistant so that all times both you and your pooch are taken very good care off no matter what exercise you’re doing.
The school term is seven weeks. First week, sans your pooch, is an overall of what you’ll both be doing in the forth coming classes. For the absolute beginners, lessons will be on the basic commands, sit, stay, recall etc. and of course, as you and your dog progress there are more advanced lessons. You will be handed the first of your handouts, then on the following weeks you’ll receive further hand outs with an overview of the lessons for that week and homework — yep like all good schools you and your doggy get to do homework!
Lessons usually start with a ‘mini agility course’, designed for puppies, small dogs and every size in between it is less of a ‘start to a career in agility’ more a way of making your dog use their brain. And it’s a blast! Even when your dog (no names mentioned here of course) does decide to take off in the company of her BFF — much to the roars of amusement of all watching — and do a somewhat ad lib agility course!
Honestly, it’s just super there and if my gal Leaf had a say in it, the hour classes would last all day, every day. She loved going so much I literally had to carry her out, because once she realized we were leaving she balked and refused to budge, despite treats, coaxing etc. We can’t wait to get back just waiting for them to have enough dogs to run the CGC class.
