Good Dog Level 1

Price
£72
Duration
Lifetime Access
Welcome to GOOD DOG LEVEL 1 where your dog can learn all the skills necessary to thrive with their human families. Whilst dogs have been bred to live with us for many, many years we can’t discount the fact they were once wild scavengers and still enjoy hobbies like bin raiding, people drag racing and legging it after squirrels!
Dogs don’t come knowing the key skills needed to be a GOOD DOG so just like young children, they need teachers to show them the way.
In GOOD DOG LEVEL 1 we start to teach your dog how to be the goodest dog your family could wish for.
The course includes:
Sitting and staying when asked
Settling and chilling when asked
Coming back when called, even when there are squirrels!
Walking with the person on the end of the lead, and not pulling them like the huskies they saw on the Christmas advert on TV
Being the best and fastest dog at fetch in the dog park
Leaving stuff when their person asks, even when it's the tastiest snack
Listening to your every word
Doing simple tricks to prove to your neighbours and friends they really are the goodest dog in town
With this course you have access to the videos for life, meaning you can go at your own pace. Of course, this will require a little effort from you too. Like any parent, showing your dog the way is the key to your dog graduating from the Good Dog Level 1 class.
In this class we have squished lessons into short 5 minute daily sessions Monday - Friday. Commit to just 5 minutes a day and marvel at the results.
