Hornsby Dog Training Club Inc
Affiliated with Dogs NSW

The introductory class is designed for new members to the club. New members attend the Introductory class once, then move into the Puppy Class or Class One.

​

Bringing your dog to this class is optional, as many people find it easier to listen without concentrating on their dog.

​

The Introductory class covers the history of the club, class formats and general rules of the club. Information is handed out during the class which covers basic training methods for practice at home and also covers the fundamentals of dog behaviour as well as socialisation and excercise.

 

The reasons for our positive reinforcement training method are outlined, as well as describing different kinds of motivation. Finally the five steps to training are described and the trainer will demonstrate how dogs are taught to sit and be released.

​

Members attend the Introductory class once for your first week. Then you will be put into Puppy Class which starts at 1pm or Beginners Class 1 which starts at 3pm, for the following week

 

New members are welcome to the classes every 2nd and 4th Sundays. This excludes Sunday’s followed by a public holiday where no classes are held. Let us know at the club house that you are here for the new member’s class.​
