PRIMO PUPPY SCHOOL

MORE THAN JUST A SOCIAL OPPORTUNITY…..

Welcome to Primo Puppy School!

Before I get into what my program is all about, I will be 100% honest, If you are just after a class that gives you a cookie-cutter program with ungoverned social opportunity for your soon to arrive pup then this program is not for you!

If however, you were unfazed by that statement then read on, because my program is absolutely for people who are serious about their puppies’ education.

If you are like me, you spent months or more in careful research on all things puppies and breeders before you decided who to go with and now it’s actually coming to fruition.

But as exciting as it all is, you are likely finding your thoughts drifting off into things such as:

‘what if he cries all night and keeps the whole household awake or worse, the neighbours as well’

or maybe, ‘but what if I get this all wrong, i’ve never had a puppy before’

or maybe it’s been several years since you had a puppy in your life, either way, your concerns are 100% valid.

I know the conflicting information on the web and the greater world of Facebook Communities can leave you with that heavy feeling in the pit of your stomach that feels something akin to dread or is it despair?

Well, if that’s you then breath, because together, we’ve got this!

How supported would you feel to know that you had a team of professionally qualified trainers and crew to help you navigate puppyhood?

What if I could teach you about all the things you will need to know before you realise you need to know them?

Sound like a great idea?

Manners ’n’ More are now running the first of its kind tailored Puppy School, but what does that actually mean?

In short it means that for the first time in 30 years (thats when the concept of puppy school was developed by Dr Ian Dunbar – the grandfather of puppy school) we get to train every puppy as the individual that it is, yet within a group setting.

Got the idea yet?

So let’s say, your puppy arrives at our training facility and it’s over excited or maybe it’s concerned, lacks for confidence or good social skills, then we (your puppy trainers) get to address your puppies’ specific needs in a way that works for your puppy.

Every puppy is taught the key foundation skills that I know you will need to go onto any further training.

We set up new exercises every week that are designed to do 3 very specific things.

For them to investigate something new in a secure and controlled manner and most importantly succeed at that task.
Assist to build canine confidence – so vital during the ‘critical learning period’
Create the opportunity to solve problems – think resilience

These 3 things together help to create confident and resilient puppies to navigate the world in which we need them to thrive in.

We will create opportunity for your puppy to engage in controlled social interaction. For puppies who may lack for social confidence they will be helped to develop socially and for puppies who may be inappropriate in their social interaction, we will assist them to learn a more appropriate approach.

Throughout the entire course, you will have the opportunity to be supported at a high level, all you need to do is lean on me for support. Ask questions as they arise and together we’ve got you covered.

Participate in my weekly virtual sessions, submit videos of your work at home (daily if you so desire) so that I can provide individual coaching and progress your own training, this way I can create things specifically for you, your puppy and your own environment.

What does it mean to have a ‘trainer in your back pocket’?

Peace of mind for sure, but when you have a puppy problem and you don’t know what to do about it or you’re unsure of what you are doing is the best way to deal with it, simply reach out to me via text (top priority options) and I will get back to you as quickly as possible so that we can create positive change and reduce the chance of something becoming a habit.

What’s the greatest benefit of having qualified trainers train your puppy?

We can teach your puppy more in 10 mins than we can teach you to teach your puppy in 4 classes.

We have the knowledge and experience to adjust what we do on the move, we can capture desirable behaviour, we can see a puppies response and know what to do right there to maximise the opportunity.

So, give me a call or complete the contact form so we can chat further about what’s really important to you, what keeps you worrying at night about your new puppy and what your hopes, goals and dreams for your new family member.

Then, how do I learn what to do?

We use our closed Facebook page to give you access to more than a dozen units containing multiple topics where you learn about puppy behaviour and training
Units included are
- - Fast-Tracking Your Toilet Training
  - Core training exercises
  - Basic training
  - Typical puppy problems

TESTIMONIAL

“We enrolled our cavooodle with Colleen and the Manners n More team during the covid-19 pandemic, knowing that Colleen had thought outside the box and was offering a very different delivery from the traditional puppy classes. It has been absolutely brilliant!

Our Annie has received the very best help possible relating to her nervousness around other dogs, and received astonishingly effective and caring training from Colleen and the MnM team. Annie loves her classes and her trainers, and in turn, we have loved seeing her develop and grow as a puppy. The weekly Zoom classes and the training videos on the FB page are incredibly useful, and I can’t understate the feeling of confidence and security you have as a puppy owner knowing that you can ask Colleen for help at any time – and can even video your own training exercises at home so Colleen can provide feedback!

I am so thankful we heard about Colleen and Manners n More. We will never use anyone else to work with our dog; we trust her and her team implicitly. If you want to send your puppy to a puppy school of the highest calibre, look no further.”
