Beginners Course

Beginners Course
Cost $55 (8 weeks)
($25 if progressed from Puppy Class)

An 8 week Beginners course commences at the beginning of each month (with the final course for each year commencing in October and a midweek twilight course being offered in January). This course will guide you through the basics of dog obedience including correct use of training equipment, heeling, sitting, standing, dropping, staying and the recall.

Leads and collars to use in the classes

The training club does not require the use of specific types of leads or collars when training with your dog. The positive reward methods used by the Tasmanian Dog Training club assist your dog to understand what you are expecting them to do by rewarding them when they do the right things.

You are free to use the lead of your choice. We do find that a fixed length lead which is no longer than around 120 centimetres is preferable as too much lead can reduce your ability to keep control of your dog while training. For this reason long leads or retractable leads are not preferable.
