Beginner obedience training is for the slightly older puppy/dog, aged 4½ months onwards, whose handlers wish to teach their dog to be a happy, well behaved canine companion. The Club teaches you to train your dog using an appropriate collar and leash, and positive reinforcement. The handler learns how to train the dog to be calm, disciplined and obedient, all of which engenders security. No dog is too old to learn!
