Dog training is an important process no matter the breed, level of experience of the owner, and age of your pet.

Whether you have a puppy or rescue dog, Canine Kids has classes in Fleet, Hampshire, suitable for a range of circumstances.

In the meantime, here's five fascinating facts on the dog training process:

• Dogs have a remarkable ability to understand human gestures and body language. They can interpret cues such as pointing, nodding, and even changes in facial expressions.
• Positive reinforcement, which involves rewarding desired behaviors, is considered one of the most effective training methods. Treats, praise, and playtime can be powerful motivators for dogs. This is the approach we take at our dog training classes in Fleet.
• Short sessions tend to be more effective. Dogs have shorter attention spans, so keeping training sessions short and focused is more effective than long, tedious sessions. Aim for 5-10 minutes of concentrated training at a time.
• Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise for dogs. Engaging their minds with puzzle toys, training exercises, and new experiences helps keep them happy and well-behaved.
• Training is a lifelong process. Training doesn't end once a dog has learned basic commands. Regular reinforcement and ongoing training are crucial to maintain good behavior and prevent regression. That's why we have both foundation and advanced classes in and around Fleet, Hampshire.

It's vital to remember that every dog is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. We can help you tailor your training approach to your dog's personality and learning style in order to get the best results.
