Newtown Public School, 1 Norfolk Street, Newtown, NSW, 2042
Only 2 spaces left

Details

Walking with your dog on a loose leash can be taught and is not magic. In many cases, the right technique and consistent training will help you and your dog to walk together like the dream team.
Walking with on a relaxed leash is not just a sign of polite puppy manners but also of mindfulness and impulse control.

Our recall workshop includes a smaller theoretical part, however the majority is practical training.

In our 1.5 hr session we cover the following:

  • Leash walking theory
  • Equipment (harness, collar)
  • Techniques
  • Reward strategies and timing
  • Impulse control exercises

Spaces are limited (max. of 8 dogs only)
This workshop is not suitable for human- and/ or dog-reactive dogs.

Please note there is also a Follow up workshop to further advance what you learned in this workshop.
