Obedience Classes
Topdog Training offers a range of Obedience classes to suit you and your dog’s needs.
There are three different levels of courses:
All of these courses are geared up for straightforward Pet Obedience.
Each of the courses run for 10 weeks and are progressive; so when you book on for a course, you book for the whole 10 weeks and those who start together, finish together.
Completing the 10 week Puppy course will take you nicely on to the Intermediate levels and completing those, takes you to on to Advanced.
People often believe that their dog only needs to complete an initial Puppy ‘socialisation’ course in order for their pet to be well trained but the reality is, that for long-term success, dogs require quite intensive training certainly until maturity. After that, training requires ‘maintenance’. Our progressive courses offer that continuity and structure.
The Puppy course incorporates the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme Puppy Foundation Award and subsequently, our courses work to prepare you to take the KC GCDS Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards.
Spaces are limited on our courses to ensure that everyone gets the assistance and attention that they require. Once the course is full, there will be no new starters during the course.
Please check our timetable page for the start dates of forthcoming obedience classes or contact us for more information.

Training Days
From time to time, we also offer “one-off” training days – these may cover specific areas of training, for example Recall or may look at a specific Kennel Club Award, for example a training day covering all of the required exercises held within the KC Good Citizens Dog Scheme Bronze Award.
When available, the dates of these can be found on our timetable page.
