We have divided our dog trainer's skills
three ways - to help dog owners as much
as we can.
We have divided our volunteer dog trainer's skills three ways to help dog owners as much as we can:
DELINQUENT DOGS - A delinquent dog needs socialisation, training or retraining. Start at 9.00 a.m. at Farriervet Clinic. Please be signed in by 8.50 a.m. Cost - gold coin donation to Mardi-Chi Dingo Foundation. Age ~ 6 months & over. Bring a lead, treats, check lead, halter or other training equipment you have. You will do what you can, with what you have. Socialising and not taking it too seriously is encouraged!
PUPPY SCHOOL - starting time is 10.30 a.m. Please book for this as we have specifically asked Kim Burke to teach this class and it is important that puppies are able to socialise with other puppies < 6 months of age. 2nd vaccination needed.
This is the time to discuss problems and how to solve them.
DANGEROUS DOGS - are those you feel you cannot control. They may threaten or make you feel threatened, they may pull you over, chase stock and attack other animals or people. This type of problem dog needs assessment in a one on one training environment where variables are controlled. If you feel your dog is a bit too much to handle in a group Steve Burke will try and help you. Owner commitment is essential to retraining.
Appointments for assessment and training (it's free) with Steve Burke can be made by phoning reception on (03) 58522000

Dangerous Dogs are dogs you feel you can't control. They may threaten or make you feel threatened, pull you over, chase stock or attack other animals or people. This type of problem dog needs assessment on a 1 on 1 training environment where variables are controlled.
