Social School

Our program is very simple, by joining our Social School at least once a week on the day allocated to you (every group is different, and every dog will be added to a group suited to their own needs) dogs will learn very important skills that will stay with them for life.

Dogs are pack animals and need the company of other dogs in order to observe & copy the right behaviours and learn about hierarchy, respect, rules & boundaries in the pack. This is how your dog will learn to be better behaved and more respectful in your family. Dogs learn thru play so the more they play the more they learn & the better behaved they will be!

Skills dogs will learn while in our program:

• Perfect recall

• Sit quietly in the car

• Walk on the lead without launching/barking at other dogs

• Be more social with other dogs

• Play with multiple dogs at the same time without panicking and becoming a target - This is one of the main issue in dog parks

• Being careful when saying hello to a new dog – not all dogs are friendly & want to be approached

• Be respectful to other dogs and learn how to behave around dominant dogs

• Be respectful and not bark at other dogs – behavior that could trigger an aggressive response in other dogs

• Be respectful of dogs of all size - just like in real life

• Back off when other dogs growl or snarl

• Not steal toy/balls from another dog

• Share a ball/toy to play fetch at the dog park

• Have very good reflexes and move quickly to avoid a bite from an aggressive dog / wildlife

Our Dog school is suitable for :

• Puppies & adolescent dogs (4 to 18 months) who are shy & fearful towards other dogs.

• Puppies & adolescent dogs (4 to 18 months) who get over-excited at the sight of other dogs.

• Older dogs might qualify depending on the breed, please get in touch and let us know the issue and the breed of your dog.

Our aim at Doggyland is to build a friendly & respectful dog without any behavioural issues.

Dogs are pack animals who need rules and boundaries to be balanced and well behaved. This is exactly what they will experience with us and the pack and this is what will change their behaviour and turn them into well-adjusted dogs.

The school run every morning Monday to Friday, all dogs are being picked up from home, taken out for some teaching & fun times for 2 hours then dropped back home tired and happy. The price for the outing is $50, for the full price list please check the price section.
