Puppy Home Set-up
Did you know puppy training can start from as soon as you collect your new puppy? Cainark Dog Training offer a Puppy Home Set Up course where our trainers will visit you and your new pup at home to ensure your puppy gets the best start from day one. Providing an hour session once a fortnight at your home, we help with crate training, toilet training, introducing the collar and lead, explaining puppy behaviour and body language, feeding and introducing basic commands.
Puppy Meet & Play
Got a new puppy and looking to socialise as well as learn? Our Puppy Meet & Play Sessions are ideal for pups aged up to 6 months old. Taking place in the secure garden and barn at Country Pooch Daycare and Cainark Training Centre, your pup will socialise and play at our facility whilst one of our Cainark trainers is on hand to provide advice and discuss canine body language. This session is an hour long and is available to book as a drop in session taking place each month.
Training Walks
Our popular training walks are ideal for owners wanting training advice in real world situations. Cainark Dog Training reveal the location upon booking and walks are approximately 1.5 hours. Cainark trainers will be on hand throughout the walk to discuss any issues as well as provide demonstrations and give training advice. Training walks are about controlled socialisation and therefore all dogs remain on lead. Taking place on the 3rd Saturday of each month.
6 Week Puppy Course Level 1 & 2
These are a small group training course held at the Country Pooch Daycare and Cainark Training Centre. Both courses are 6 weeks with an hour session taking place each week. Level 1 is ideal for pups aged from 2nd vaccination to 6 months old. We focus on socialisation, body language, lead walking, recall, eye contact, sit and wait/stay and more. Level 2 is ideal for pups that have completed their basic training and are now looking to progress further. Introducing commands such as place, down, middle, emergency stop and more, as well as improving lead walking and recall skills with increased distractions and distances.
Reactivity Workshop
What is reactivity in dogs and why does this occur? Join our 1.5 hour workshops as a drop in session to discuss and understand reactivity. Attending with your reactive dog, this workshop is focused on training techniques and gives demonstrations to help owners gain in confidence to deal with reactive behaviour. Taking place on the 1st Saturday of each month outside at the Country Pooch Daycare and Cainark Training Centre.
Lead Walking Workshop
Do you dread taking your dog for a walk, or do you get walked by your dog? Our Lead Walking workshops are for you! This 1.5 hour workshop discusses lead walking position, lead walking set up, demonstrations and techniques provided by the trainer who will also offer methods on how your dog can focus and ignore distractions. Taking place on the 2nd Saturday of each month, outside at the Country Pooch Daycare and Cainark Training Centre.
Recall Workshop
Do you have the confidence to allow your dog off lead without worrying about their recall? Does your dog run up to every dog to say hello or suddenly ignore you when you try to recall them? Then our Recall Workshop is for you! This 1.5 hour workshop will equip you with the tools you need to increase engagement and focus from your dog as well as proofing the perfect recall. Taking place on the 3rd Saturday of each month, outside at the Country Pooch Daycare and Cainark Training Centre.
