THE TRAINING VENUE FOR PUPPIES
Millennium Hall, Brittannia Road, Burbage, Leics. LE10 2HF
DIRECTIONS
From M69 J1 (Hinckley/A5) roundabout -
Head to Hinckley. B4109
At 1st island straight over
Next left into Coventry Road.
Continue along Coventry Road until you see Britannia Road on the right.(Sycamors pub on your left)
Just inside Britannia Rd, there are lock up garages on the right. The next building on the right is the Millennium Hall. The entrance door and car park are at the rear of the building. The drive is sign posted after some lock up garages. Follow it and turn right onto the car park.
It will only take you 5mins to get to the Hall from the M69 roundabout.
Millenmium Hall is an excellent venue for all types of activities.
It is bright, very clean and warm for winter months.
There is a large car park to the rear, with plenty of fields for your dogs right next to the car park and a childrens play area.
Puppy classes are a very important part of your dogs development and it is important that the classes you attend, give them the best possible start.
You and your family are more than welcome to come and watch a session for free first.
Puppies are welcome to.
Puppy classes are kept small so the individual needs of each puppy have the best possible chance of being met and to keep the atmosphere fun and friendly.

POSTURE RELAXATION TRAINING
 |
 |
- PRT can be beneficial for puppies and dogs exhibiting a variety of adjustment problems, related to stress and lack of handling and containing. It is important for vet/grooming/boarding visits that your dog accepts being physically handled and moved about. PRT can help improve this.
|
- Any physical punishment resorts in the dog loosing trust and relaxing with you. The idea of PRT is to gradually counter condition a dogs tense, challenging unsettled behaviour, with more relaxation and trust, resulting in a calmer dog.
|
GROUNDWORK EXERCISES
We can use ground work obstacles, which can be anything from textures to walk over… to things to move over, around and under, to help develop a dogs awareness, confidence and willingness to focus and listen and to wait for our signals.
It will also make them more agile, supple and balanced and not afraid to walk of strange things on the floor in the future.
All dogs love agility exercises - groundwork is similar, but it will be balanced, controlled and a lot slower to help them build up their confidence.
WELL DONE TO ALL MY PUPPY CLASS GRADUATES AND ADULT DOGS
