🙌 Polite Greetings – Teaching Your Dog the Art of a Calm Hello

Mondays 6.30–7.30pm
Dates 16th Nov & 23rd Nov

We all love a happy, waggy hello — but a dog that launches at people, or at every visitor through the front door, can be stressful and a little embarrassing. Polite greetings aren’t about squashing your dog’s joy. They’re about giving them a calmer way to say hello that everyone enjoys — and that keeps four paws on the floor.

🐾 Polite Greetings
🕰️ 6.30–7.30pm. One hour for two weeks.
📅 Dates: 16th Nov & 23rd Nov
💷 Cost £40.00

What does a “polite greeting” actually look like?

We’ll tackle the two situations where the leaping happens most:

  • Out and about — greeting people without jumping up
  • At home — a calm welcome when visitors arrive at the door

Learn how to:

  • Teach a default “four on the floor” so your dog chooses to keep paws down
  • Reward the calm hello instead of the bouncy one
  • Manage the front door and doorbell so arrivals don’t tip into chaos
  • Help your dog settle once the greeting’s done, rather than pestering for more
  • Set visitors up to help, instead of accidentally rewarding the jump

Because a dog that greets calmly is a dog that gets invited everywhere — no more apologising, no more muddy paw prints on the postman.
