What the course should cover

Organised puppy training sessions reinforce the lessons you teach at home and ensure you don’t forget anything crucial. A comprehensive course will take as long as is needed for your particular puppy (probably a couple of months) and will cover:

Basic health
House training
Cleaning up after puppy
Identity tags/micro-chipping
Teething and chewing
Separation anxiety
Socialisation with people and other dogs
Basic commands and obedience training
On and off-lead control

How to find a great local puppy training course

First, tap into your local network. Ask at your local vet or pet shop for courses they've heard positive feedback on and talk to your dog-owner friends about the classes they've used in the past. Also ask your local vet clinic to see if they organise puppy parties where you can have enjoy some training sessions and puppy socialisation.

Then, search a list of nationally accredited courses, such as those offered by your official kennel club. This two-pronged approach should quickly give you a feel for all that's good and not so good in the world of dog training.

It's also worth visiting the class without your puppy before you sign up, to make sure the instructor is sufficiently experienced to offer the advice you need. Before you make your decision ask the owners if they enjoy the classes.

When you have chosen the course that’s right for you and your puppy, make sure that they are fully vaccinated before you take them along for the first lesson. Your vet can give the best advice as to when your puppy is fully protected and therefore can socialise with other puppies and dogs.
