News

We are already taking enrolments for our next session of dog training and puppy training classes which begin in February.

Our training classes are convenient for the Lutterworth/Rugby/Countesthorpe areas.

Dates for the next classes are:

• Cotesbach (Tuesday evenings)  27th February
• Walcote (Friday evenings)  23rd February
• Peatling Parva (Thursdays once a fortnight)  March 22nd

All of our classes are small so each dog or puppy has individual attention.  Qualified APDT instructor.

We aim to make our classes a bit different from many other training classes.

Our puppy training is aimed at problem prevention.  Many of the problems seen in adult dogs start as a puppy.  We aim to give owners the skills to prevent these from developing.

Because our classes are small they do fill up quickly.

If you are interested in a place contact Anne on 07951 686 694.

We are starting our dog training and puppy classes again after Christmas this week.

• Cotesbach starts 9th January
• Walcote 12th January
• Peatling Parva 18th January (every fortnight)
• Scent classes are every fortnight at either Cotesbach or Peatling Parva – these classes are now full.

If you would like to find out more about our scent classes there is more information on the scentwork uk website. http://scentworkuk.com/scentwork/

We have a few spaces left on the older puppy/beginner class at Peatling Parva.

All of our puppy classes are small with a well qualified trainer who is a full member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers.

If you are interested in puppy or beginner dog training classes then you are welcome to come and view the training class before you start.

This is now full, if there is enough demand we may hold another session in the new year

We are holding a trick training sessions on 8th December at Pealing Parva Village Hall, near Lutterworth.

This will be a fun session for dogs at various training levels.

The tricks we will be teaching will vary from things such as walk backwards, spin, bow to more complex tricks such as putting toys away.

The cost for the class will be £15, it will start at 7pm and finish between 9pm and 9.30

Taking your puppy to puppy classes can  improve your puppy’s obedience and help to prevent future behaviour problems.

We still have puppy training spaces on a Friday evening at Walcote.in November.  There will be spaces in the new year for the Cotesbach classes.The puppy class starts at 5.15 and is held at Walcote memorial hall just outside Lutterworth.

All training classes are small with less than 5 dogs where possible.

One to one training sessions or behaviour consultations are also availble for adult dogs

Get your puppy off to the best start with our puppy classes.  Our classes are small, we aim to keep classes below 5 puppies.

All classes are run according to APDT guidelines, so only kind, fair and effective methods are used during training.

Our puppy classes fill up quickly so book a place early to be sure of a space.

If you would like more information please contact Anne on 07951 686 694 for more information.

On September 19th we are starting a beginners/level 1 scent course.
This is aimed at people who have had some experience in scent work and want to work towards the level 1 trial.

The course will be held at Cotesbach Village Hall and will be run every 2 weeks.

Scent work is a really fun activity for dogs. It provides them with a lot of mental stimulation.

We also run Wednesday drop in sessions once a month at Walcote. The next session will be on 13th September.

Our puppy and dog training classes are also continuing at both Walcote and Cotesbach.

We have a stall at the Lutterworth Dog Fest on Sunday.

You are welome to come and visit us and ask questions about our dog training classes or about any behaviour issues you might be having with your own dog.

We will also have a good range of kong toys to sell.

At 3.30 our scentwork dogs will be giving a demonstration of their training.

Do you have a dog that never seems to switch off? Does he bark at everything and jump up everyone? It can be difficult living with a high energy dog, and there can be lots of reasons for it, including your dogs age or breed.

If this sounds like your dog the good news is that there are things you can do to help.

At Paws In Progress dog training we have developed a course to help dogs just like these to relax and calm down and learn impulse control.

The class is on alternate Tuesday evenings at Cotesbach Village Hall near Lutterworth from 7.30 – 9pm starting on 25th July. the cost for 4 sessions is £70.
