Tricks Training

This course is great for any owner who wants to have some fun with their dog, and have some tricks to show off to friends and family!

It suits all breeds & crossbreeds, and any size dogs. It is also an excellent starter point for owners that want to go on and train their dog for Heelwork to Music or K9 Freestyle (doggie dancing). It's also useful for dogs that want to have a professional acting career, dogs that are going to learn service tasks, and pet dogs who need a bit of fun injected into their training!
