Dog Manners Class - Servicing Logan, Redland Area,
Gold Coast and Ipswich

(Dogs over 16 weeks)

The Dog Manners Course has been designed for puppies over 16 weeks of age and dogs of all ages. It specifically targets shaping nice behaviour patterns and can help to keep the education process happening for dogs and their owners.

The Manners Course is designed to be teaching owners how to lift their level of interaction to have more engagement and control around the home and outside environments from your Dog. Mat training is one of the main attractions for Dog owners to attend.

Any other dog that may have missed puppy training will still find this course very beneficial with information to start setting boundaries to ensure clear communication to the dog. Older dogs that may have required a private lesson to teach basic manners can now gain the advantage of doing a course under distraction whilst learning new skills.

In our Craig A. Murray dog school manners class we start to ask more from the dogs and also start to set more rules around the home such as setting up mental barriers to teach the dog areas that may be off limits to them. We also teach them not to rush out the gate etc. for safety purposes.

Other training exercises taught are ‘wait’ commands, how to shape nice retrieves with your dog, how to stop your dog jumping up on you or your guests, and mat training where the dog is taught to stay within the boundary of a mat and to make itself calm and comfortable to promote stable behaviour.

This class allows us to have an excellent opportunity to continue down the path to a well behaved, calm and confident dog as it heads into maturity and to remind those older dogs how it should be behaving.
