7:00pm Puppy Foundation Award class
The Kennel Club have a detailed description of what the puppy and handler will have learnt by the end of the course. The topics include:
- Responsibility and Care:
- Cleanliness and Identification
- Recognition of basic health problems
- Teething, chewing and daily routine
- House training and separation anxiety
- Puppy Play
- Socialisation, with dogs and people
- Puppy Recall
- Basic Puppy Positions
- Walking on the lead
- Stay (for about 10 seconds at this stage)
- Take an article away from the puppy
- Food Manners
The Puppy Foundation Award course lasts for 6 weeks and costs £20 on top of the annual club membership fee. It forms a good basis to go on to the Bronze Award once the puppy is over a year.
