We have also taken UK Assistance Dog puppies
for a few weeks to ‘Iron out’ small problems that
their regular full time socialisers were having
problems with. The pass rate is generally 1 in 5
due to the extremely high level required. To date
ALL our full term puppies passed and are now fully
qualified Registered UK Assistance Dogs helping
their recipients to lead an easier happier life!
The methods we use to train both UK Assistance Dogs & Puppies and Private Clients Dogs and Puppies is to keep lessons fun and playful with cheerful excited voice and big cuddles along with a tasty treat now and again as a reward. This keeps the Dog or Puppy keen to learn and please whilst enjoying the playful fun of a new game. Dogs and Puppies are trained little and often and should never be forced to continue with training if they are becoming tired, remember to allow them their own space and time. Most of all be patient, many things are new to a young dog or puppy.
