Howard Kirby leads the team at Mullenscote, along with his Training Ambassadors; one of which is Russ Hodges.
They both agree that outside of the hugely popular gundog training courses they deliver, the foundation aspects of teaching a puppy to respond to commands and raising a well socialised puppy could be adapted for all breeds of pet dogs. Speaking to colleagues in the veterinary and pet industry they recognised the need to offer a wider and diverse training package to include pet dogs, and now have a fantastic purpose built facility to assist owners with the challenges of puppy handling and behaviour issues.
Mullenscote Puppy and Companion Dog Training Centre are proud to offer an indoor training facility, specifically for companion dogs, in the Andover and Salisbury district. Companion dog training is open to all breeds of dogs. Pet dog owner’s love and care for their pets without any expectation that the dog needs to work for a living. They simply want a well behaved, well socialised dog that enhances the pleasure of being a pet dog owner. The PAWGO courses are a fun, group training experience that will develop the owner’s understanding of responsible dog ownership. It will provide the pet dog owner with the knowledge to develop their pet into a dog that is a pleasure to own, one that is both obedient and well socialised. Disobedient pet dogs in the company of irresponsible dog owners can make people feel anxious and even fearful for their own safety. The PAWGO dog training scheme is all about training responsible dog ownership and dogs to be obedient. ‘Training a dog can be a fantastic experience; our job at Mullenscote is to ensure dog owners get professional advice that is personalised and relevant to their individual dog and circumstances’ says Howard.
The courses arevrun from the new Play Barn at Mullenscote Dog Training Centre in a relaxed fun environment; pet dog owners can expect a gradual development of basic exercises and troubleshooting demonstrations of daily life situations. The PAWGO courses are non-competitive and the emphasis is placed on the standard of achievement and delivered using unique training aids.
