With new Regional Venues lined up for 2007 you can be assured of receiving the very best training in a superb purpose built venue. Dog training is great fun for owner and dog and provides a bond for life between you and your dog.Dog Handling means channeling the good habits and restricting the bad. Although the training varies with the age and breed, size and temperament of the individual dog and handler. Our training will be restricted to basic exercises to promote a healthy working relationship and establish some element of control. At the training class, you will be shown what to do and how to do it and it is expected that you will carry out this routine daily starting with a gradual introduction of a few minutes duration and building up to 10 or 15 minutes each day, bearing in mind that too much training at an early stage can be just as bad as too little! The instruction will comprise of temperament training and an introduction to basic obedience and if required agility exercises including walking to heel, recall, distance control, communication using voice and hand-signals and the "stay" exercises. You will be shown how to play with your dog in order that you both learn how to have fun together. It is most important that if possible the same person attends with the dog for training and that THAT PERSON ONLY should carry out the subsequent daily training. We offer expert training and guidance for owner and dog, combined with the use of correct training equipment which is available at the centre. We cannot emphasise enough the importance of correct training from as early as possible. By the end of your course, you should be making good progress, developing control and understanding of your dog. Remember a trained dog is an asset, whereas an untrained dog can be a liability. The aim of MAP Working Gundogs is to promote the training and welfare of the dog, using modern, motivational, positive methods which focus on the dog's behavior pattern, and if need be modifying it to an acceptable one. In doing this our methods will be primarily reward and play training, however this does not rule out any aversion therapy that may be necessary. We will endeavour to provide the dog with a structured place in its human environment. |
