PUPPY / CONFIDENCE BLOCK – W2

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE CONFIDENCE!!!!

 

  • Do you have a brand new puppy??
  • Do you have a dog lacking in confidence??
  • Have you looked at Crufts on the television and thought you’d love to be there one day with your dog?

Well, just maybe that’s exactly what the future could hold for you and your  furry companion.  Our 4 week PUPPY / CONFIDENCE RINGCRAFT sessions are for  you – just 4 weekly payments of £20 and 4 weeks of fun, puppy enrichment and gentle confidence building skills are at your finger tips.  Designed specifically for brand new baby puppies and dogs needing a gentle hand to help build up this self-esteem and bravery, these classes are crafted to give them the foundation to build on and become a super show dog.  Our 4 week block will give them a grounding in the basics without that feeling of being pushed beyond where they are comfortable.  It will direct you into the exercises and games you can play at this pivotal early age to set your puppy up for success so that by the time he is old enough to step paw in the ring, he is already well on his way to a glittering career.  We do not use any harsh-handling or dominance and no dog will be subjected to bullying by any of the others in your class.

Dog shows in the UK are regulated by the Kennel Club and only dogs who are pedigree examples of the breed (ie they have “papers” and are not crossbreeds) are allowed to show in most dog shows.  However, if you are just looking for a bit of fun and to attend local fun shows, then your dog would be able to compete even if he is not a pedigree.

This 4 week block of one hour sessions will have a maximum of 6 handlers/dogs in them so you aren’t lost in the crowd and will get the 121 attention you need.  It will be attended by other baby puppies just like yours and also older dogs who may be shy or nervous, so no need for any of them to feel out of their depth – they all have to start somewhere!

The course will guide you through such things as:

  • Getting your puppy to focus on  you
  • The right way to use a lead
  • Standing your dog with the PingPong game
  • Full body examination husbandry
  • Free stacking without touching your dog
  • Loose lead trotting
  • Running with other dogs
  • Training and games to practice at home
  • Access to our training videos and files in the Ringcraft Rebels Facebook Group.

At the end of the course you can either enrol for a further  block, move forward to 121 training personal training or participate in our Ringcraft Rebels workshops before hitting the showring with your best friend for real.

Dates for this block are WEDNESDAY EVENINGS at 7.30 pm
8th May
15th May
22nd May
29th May

Bring your happy face and enthusiastic demeanour – training should be fun and I guarantee you’ll get so much more from your furry companion if you are both loving it!  No harsh handling will be permitted.

What should I bring?  Treats …. lots and lots of tiny high value yummy treats that your dog will work for.
Should I bring toys?  If your dog is toy-driven, then bring his favourite toy as his reward/reinforcer.
Do I need to bring a water bowl?  Water is available but please bring your own bowl to avoid cross contamination.
Do I need poo bags?  Yes, always have poo bags with you (that includes in the actual show ring too) … you just never know when they’ll do it.
What should I wear?  Comfortable clothes and shoes that allow you to move at a speed you would in the show ring.
Do I need a chair?  We envisage you standing and working with your dog throughout the entire hour.  If you feel you will need to sit down, then please do bring your own chair as there is only one bench within the barn.

Please arrive 5 minutes before your session to ensure you get the full amount of time and do not disturb the class once it is already in session.
