Intermediate class

---

Are you a graduate of our Beginner's Class who wants to move on to the next stage of your training? Are you striving to bring out the best in your dog? Would you like a dog that will listen anytime, anywhere, no matter what...even off-leash on a beach full of squirrels? Great! Please hold on to that vision, but first you need to take the next logical step on that journey, which is the Intermediate Class.

This four week class is designed to advance and polish the skills you learned in the Beginner's Class. We build on the foundation laid in previous classes, raising the bar of expectations and preparing the dogs for real world situations. We also add in a few new cues and an intro to agility, tricks and other fun games!

Some of the topics we'll cover include:

• Fading The Lure - food lures become hand signals to avoid a “Show me the money” dog.
• Petting & Praise - stronger emphasis on verbal praise and affection with less treats.
• Increasing the 3 D's - distance, duration and distractions
• Pack Walk - develop loose leash walking while out for a short pack walk 
• Cafe Relax - teaching your dog to chill while you do - coffee & donuts provided! 
• Wait - boundary training exercise to stop your dog from bolting through doors.
• Fluency - Dogs will learn verbal commands, hand signals 

This class is held on a weekday morning from 10.00-11.00am at our Training School in Little Weeds, Nerja (behind the industrial estate near Lidl). All our courses are great value for money at only €60 inc IVA for 4 x weekly 60 minute classes. They also include printed class notes and materials that you can take home to share with friends and family.
