Puppy Socializing and Training

Paws'n'Learn Puppy Classes were established  by Marie MIller in 1990 and are the only Puppy Classes in the area to offer TTouch by  qualified  Tellington TTouch Practitioners and Trainers as an integral part of the courses

Tellington TTouch and Clicker Training are the primary methods used

Puppy Courses are held for puppies under 18 weeks at commencement

You are welcome to view a class without your puppy before booking in. However, if you would like to attend and view with your puppy please telephone or email in advance as numbers of puppies in the hall are strictly limited

There is a special magic experienced by families as they welcome a new puppy into their home.

Help your puppy to socialise with adults, children and other dogs in a relaxed, happy, confident way. Improve their ability to cope with the home and our busy environment without fear.

Condition your puppy to respond to training by learning as a family in the happy, fun atmosphere of classes specially developed to PREVENT problem behaviours such as BITING & CHEWING, HOUSE SOILING, JUMPING UP, NOT COMING WHEN CALLED, PULLING ON LEAD, FEARFUL BEHAVIOUR etc etc etc

Telephone advice is available or a home visit can be arranged if the family is experiencing difficulty before vaccinations are complete

Clicker Training makes learning fun for owners and  pups.

You will be assessed at Level 1 for your Bronze Medal and Certificate at the end of your course.

You will then be eligable to join our adult groups to work towards Level 2 & 3 Silver and Gold.

How does TTouch help your puppy to develop into an emotionally and physically  balanced adult?

Puppies grow quickly. It is often difficult for their minds to keep up with the speed at which their body grows. This affects movement and physical balance which in turn can affect the puppy's emotional development and balance. 

If pups get into the habit of holding tension in certain parts of the body they can become over excitable and difficult to manage or very sensitive and reactive to being touched.

By using TTouch body work and ground work exercises an owner can build a bond more quickly, as well as enhance their pup's confidence and abilty to learn.

This all helps to reduce behaviours associated with over excitement or fear.

A puppy who is aware of it's body and moves with confidence finds it much easier to learn to walk on a loose lead and cope with new experiences or situations.

TTouch methods are used to help puppies to learn self control. It is important that pups learn how to interact with each other but equally they need to learn how to be calm in a busy environment when it may not appropriate to play.

Confidence course is great fun for puppies and owners. Puppies are playing while learning how to walk slowly and in balance. It is a tremendous boost to emotional confidence if puppies have a good awareness of how their body moves.

The other really important lesson we want our pups to learn is thow to walk at human pace, on a loose lead without pulling. If the puppy is able to walk slowly this is a more reaslistic expectation.

We also take a break from the hall and and meet up for social walks. In the summer months when the nights are lighter we do an evening walk. During the winter months we meet on the 4th Sunday of each month. Here are a few of us at Coombe Country Park one warm summer evening.
