Puppy socialisation, a guide for owners

Gelert dog training believes in early socialisation of dogs.
This is the most fundamental part of dog training.

Socialisation involves teaching your puppy to relate to others.
This means other dogs, other humans and everyday life.
These important lessons will hopefully stay with the dog for life.
Without this social skill you dog may grow up in fear of life.

Why socialisation?
It is not difficult to have your relatives, friends and their children around.
Even your neighbour’s animals are all willing to greet your new puppy.
Your puppy needs to meet strangers of all different ages and type.  
To be under control, to do as you require, on your terms.
Dogs have a body language all of their own.  They learn this and that off others,
at an early age if they miss out on the social side they may be frightened, shy or
even aggressive towards other dogs or people.

I am not running puppy classes at the moment but offer
The Puppy Home Visit
This will be ideal for your family to learn and get the best from your new  puppy
In the comfort of  your  own home.
During the visit I can help with obedience, feeding, toilet training and
General behaviour such as jumping, barking, play biting etc.
You would also be more than welcome to bring your puppy to my training venue
In Redwick to help socialise your puppy with other dogs and humans .
Obedience classes for dog over six months old would then be available for you.

Make your rules NOW! And Keep them
