Puppy training - What to look for in your instructor

1. Early Development: Puppies are in a critical stage of development where they are learning how to interact with the world. An experienced trainer understands this sensitive period and knows how to shape positive behaviours that will last a lifetime.

2. Preventing Future Problems: An experienced trainer can identify potential behavioural issues early on and address them before they become entrenched. This proactive approach can prevent more serious problems, such as aggression or anxiety, as your puppy matures.

3. Tailored Training: Every puppy is unique, with different temperaments and learning paces. An experienced trainer can adapt their methods to suit your puppy’s specific needs, ensuring effective and enjoyable training sessions.

4. Building Confidence: A skilled trainer will use positive reinforcement techniques that help build your puppy's confidence. They know how to make the training process enjoyable and stress-free, which is essential for a happy and well-adjusted dog.

5. Guidance for Owners: Training a puppy isn’t just about teaching the dog; it’s also about educating the owner. An experienced trainer can provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to continue training at home, ensuring consistency and success.

6. Socialisation Expertise: Socialisation is a key part of puppy training. An experienced trainer understands the importance of exposing your puppy to various environments, people, and other dogs in a controlled and positive way, which is vital for developing a well-rounded adult dog.

7. Handling Challenges: Puppies can be unpredictable, and training them requires patience and expertise. An experienced trainer has encountered a wide range of puppy behaviours and knows how to handle them effectively, ensuring your puppy learns good habits from the start.
