Pre-requisites
Dogs must have had 2nd set of vaccinations and must have Bordetella, proof required
Dogs must be toilet trained
Dogs must be dog-to-dog and dog-to-human friendly
So as not to overwhelm pups please note you are welcome to bring 1 other family member (children must be over 12yrs to take part in training and leash must be held by an adult). As not all dogs are child friendly children must be 8yrs old to attend and must be able to sit and watch.
Children - while we hope every dog is child friendly, this is not something that can be garunted. Dogs in a new environmnt are often stressed and unpredictable. To ensure safety for all, children over the age of 12years are welcome to attend, please note we require a double leash method on the dog with a capable handler always holding one leash. If the child is not actively involved in training, they should be able to sit quietly.
