Puppy training West Oxfordshire
Puppy training is force-free and uses positive reinforcement. Puppies have an incredible capacity to learn and it is never too early for them to do so. If a puppy has a secure attachment with their human parent/s this has a hugely beneficial impact on their wellbeing, their development and their future behaviour and positive puppy training is a key element in this. Puppy training sessions are fun and incorporate learning through play as well as helping you to respond to your puppy’s needs. Help with one to one puppy training may take place around another dog depending on your puppy’s vaccination status.
