Hello! We've launched our 4th edition of canine obedience group courses for both puppies (between 2.5 months and 1 year old) and adult dogs (from 1 year of age). All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations, dewormed and socialized.
We will start on November 13, 2023, and classes will be held every Monday. The schedule is to be defined depending on the people who sign up and the number of groups that are created. Classes will last 1 hour per week at our school Social Dogs in Calvià, on Camí de la Canera, 12, in front of the municipal dog pound.
To set up a group, a minimum of 4 dogs must have signed up. There will be at least 1 trainer for every 5 dogs and a maximum of 10 dogs per group.
For puppies, the duration of the course is 16 sessions (that is, a 1-hour class per week for 16 Mondays) and for adult dogs it will take 10 sessions.
As for the rates, for the puppy course it will consist of 16 sessions of 1 hour per week; If up to 5 dogs register, the price is €370 and from 6 to 10 dogs, €330. For adult dogs, the course lasts for 10 classes of 1 hour per week; Up to 5 dogs, the price is €270 and from 6 to 10 dogs, €240.
To book your place, it is advisable to do so by paying €100 and the rest of the full amount will be paid on the first day of class. Partial or full refunds are not made unless there is a force majeure reason (such as a serious illness or death of the handler or dog) and a certificate must be presented to prove this. If a student does not attend class, they will not have the option to make it up on its own. But we always offer 2 additional group classes at the end of the course free of charge for everyone enrolled. In case of rain, class will be postponed to the following week, since we do not have a covered indoor place to do the training.
The cues that we will learn during the course are: sit, down, stay, walking together ("heel"), not pulling on the leash, the recall, the eye contact and the impulse control or the "don't eat" or "leave it" (anything that is given to our dog or if it is on the floor or any other place and that is not allowed). All these cuess will be worked on until very good obedience is achieved both at home and on the street with and without a leash. It is advisable for all cohabitants to practice daily to have excellent results. So we recommend that you join the classes with your family, including children aged 10 and up.
We are going to donate 10% of the total amount of the courses to the animal association Quina Animalada in Sencelles, Mallorca. This animal association fights for the defense and protection of animal rights in any context and situation, always focusing on a sustainable and respectful coexistence between the living beings of our planet.
We recommend that you contact us if you need additional information and if you are interested in reserving your place. You will find our contacts in this section.
Thank you very much. We hope to see you very soon!
