Loose Lead Workshop

Come and have fun teaching your dog to walk nicely on a lead.

We will discuss:

The theory behind learning, reasons for lead pulling, how the environment matters, breed specifics and more.

Some fun training games for you and your dog to enjoy.

10am - 12pm

Sunday 21st July 

Exbury Walled Garden, SO45 1AF

£45 per dog

Directions

Head towards Exbury Gardens but carry on past the main public entrance

A bit further along there is another right hand turn next to a cream house, The Family Dog Club is listed on the signpost

Turn in there and go straight ahead

Bear left immediately after the line of bushes/trees in front of you **if you end up in the gardens you have gone too far!**

You will see the high brick walls of the old Victorian garden, we are in there so just find a place to park

Please wait with your cars until we come out to meet you and give each other plenty of space. Please avoid greetings with other pups until we are in class as there are a few things we need to explain about these.

What to bring

A 1.5-2m lead is best, teaching loose lead is much harder with short 1m leads or retractable ones, we willl explain why in class

A comfortable harness, Y shaped designs avoid restriction of the shoulders so pup can move naturally. If you haven't got one, then a flat collar

Plenty of treats, soft, small and stinky work best! The Healthy Pet Store in Totton have a great selection of natural, healthy treats
