After successful completion of this course, puppies might be entitled to earn their Official AKC S.T.A.R PUPPY Certificate, and they might even qualify to take their Official AKC Canine Good Citizen Test, which will be offered at the end of each term.
Does my Puppy need Obedience Training?
Yes.
All dogs can be good dogs and all dogs need training! The sooner you start, the better as it gives you the chance to prevent unwanted behaviors.
But, it’s never too late to “teach an old dog new tricks!” If your dog is pulling on leash, hyper when around other dogs and basically ignores you when out and about, this course will turn his behavior around, so that you can enjoy taking him outside.
Who can join Rookie Paws
Rookie Paws is ideal, basic obedience training for young dogs, that are either very energetic and get super excited around other dogs, or pups that are rather on the shy side, and need to gain more confidence.
No previous training is required! Motivation by food is beneficial.
It is a great course for new dog owners to learn basic obedience training. We also welcome maids and drivers to that class, so that they can learn how to properly handle your dog. At home and in public.
Minimum number of Dogs: 4
What will we learn in Rookie Paws?
stay
Sit down calmly and wait until you are told otherwise.
Wait
Wait calmly by my side while I am doing something.
Come when called
No matter what's going on in the park. When I call you, you should come immediately.
Listen
Hello!?!? You also should listen to me if I don't have any treats with me.
Calm Down
Being out is exciting, but there is no need to vocalize (=bark) at everything.
No Pulling
You will get to sniff and explore, but I like for my shoulder to stay in it's socket.
Leave IT
Do not pick up any piece of food from Bangkok's streets! It could be dangerous for you!
Sit & Down
Sit is the most commonly taught and reinforced behavior! Down is slightly behind.
To my Pup:
I really enjoy spending time with you! I love taking you places, too. But there are a few fundamental rules that we need to set, so we can safely enjoy our quality time together.
