LifeSkills with Pawsonality

LifeSkills with Pawsonality is a weekly class for dogs aged four months and older. The group class comprises a five week rolling curriculum focussed on developing and proofing skills to help you build your relationship with your dog. Over the course of five weeks we will build skills such as Place/Stay, Impulse Control, Structured Play, Handling, Leave It and Recall. This also serves as an opportunity to socialise your dog in a supervised environment.

Dogs of all sizes, breeds and ages (including reactive dogs*) are welcome to join.

*Please reach out in advance if you have any special needs or concerns regarding your dog (especially aggressive behaviours or reactivity).

Class is held at Quakers Hill Veterinary Hospital every Saturday morning at 11:30am. Each class goes for one hour and costs $50, or we can bundle an entire program of five classes for $200 (if paid in full up-front), which you can then attend at your convenience over the following three months. Clients can join the course at any time without waiting for a new term to begin.
