What Your Puppy Will Learn In Level 2
- 30-Second Stay at 2 Meters (Sit, Down, or Stand)
Your puppy will learn to stay in their chosen position for 30 seconds while you stand 2 meters away. This advanced stay command strengthens their patience and ability to remain focused, even with increased distance. - 5-Second Chin Rest (Using Either Hand)
This skill teaches your puppy to gently rest their chin in your hand for 5 seconds, promoting calmness and trust. It’s a great way to build relaxation, improve handling tolerance, and prepare them for grooming or veterinary care. - Recall to Side Finish (Sit on Either Side of Handler)
A well-trained recall is essential for safety and control. In this exercise, your puppy will return from 5 meters awayand sit neatly on either side of you instead of in front. This positioning is useful for advanced obedience and heel work. - Leave a Moving Object (Food or Toy)
Strengthening impulse control, your puppy will learn to resist chasing or grabbing a moving object, such as a thrown toy or piece of food. This skill is especially valuable for preventing unwanted chasing behaviours and reinforcing focus on the handler. - Figure-of-Eight Send Around
Your puppy will develop better coordination and focus by learning to navigate a figure-of-eight pattern around designated markers. This exercise enhances their ability to follow directional cues, improving agility and responsiveness.
What Your Puppy Will Learn In Level 3
Training your dog outside offers several benefits that go beyond what you can achieve indoors. Here are the main advantages of outdoor dog training:
1. Real-World Distractions
Why it matters: Dogs learn to focus on commands despite people, noises, smells, other animals, and vehicles.
Result: Stronger, more reliable obedience in any environment.
2. More Space to Practice
Why it matters: Outdoor areas allow for practicing long-distance recalls, leash walking, and agility.
Result: Better exercise and more dynamic training opportunities.
3. Exposure to New Environments
Why it matters: Dogs become more adaptable and less anxious in unfamiliar places.
Result: Improved confidence and socialisation.
4. Natural Enrichment
Why it matters: Sniffing, exploring, and seeing new sights are mentally stimulating.
Result: A more satisfied and tired dog after training sessions.
5. Improved Socialisation
Why it matters: Dogs encounter other people, dogs, and situations.
Result: They learn appropriate behaviour and develop better manners in public.
6. Weather Conditioning
Why it matters: Training in different weather helps dogs adjust to varying conditions.
Result: They become less reactive to wind, rain, or heat.
This will all be done with leads and training lines on.
