We will teach you and your puppy a comprehensive list of cues which will focus on their obedience and also their impulse control:
- Sit on voice cue
- Lie down on voice cue
- Wait in position until you return (most useful when answering the front door)
- Teaching them to leave items they shouldn’t have

- Build a solid Recall (come back when you call them!) around distractions
- Socialisation and Play Time with other puppies of a similar age
- Prevent unwanted behaviours such as jumping up
- Play appropriately with people
- Give us their attention
- Get our puppies used to being handled (as a vet or groomer would)
