Overview

Whether you just brought home a brand new 8-week old puppy or a newly adopted adult dog, they need to be properly trained and given time to adjust to their new home. This all video course will teach you everything you need to know to get your dog off on the right paw! Going into a new home is one of the most stressful things for a dog. It would be like you moving to a foreign country where you don't speak the language or know the culture!

Even adult dogs who you bring home from a shelter or rescue center need to be trained. They are entering a completely new environment and most likely already have habits and mannerisms from their previous owners.

The number 1 terminal illness in dogs is bad behavior. Dogs make mistakes - or aren't properly trained - and their owners don't want to deal with it so they get dropped off at a shelter. Did you know that the average age of animals entering shelters is only 18 months and only 1 out of 10 shelter dogs end up finding permanent homes? The earlier you start training your new puppy or adopted dog the better and easier it will be. You want to get your new pup started out on the right path from the very beginning so they don't have time to learn bad habits. The most important thing you can do when training your new pet is to have reasonable expectations and be patient. From there it's a game of application and repetition!

Who is this course for?

This course is for anyone who wants to start building trust and a strong bond with their new puppy or adopted dog. This course is meant to guide you through the training process and is the perfect introduction to dog training in general!

This course takes the stress out of having to be somewhere at a specific time each week for dog training. It allows you to properly train your pup in the comfort of your own home.

From understanding how your pet thinks and keeping their attention to basic commands there is a lot that goes into training a new pup. Professional dog trainer Ian Stone takes you step-by-step with visuals of real dogs to show you how to properly train your furry friend and how to have fun while doing so!

All courses are accredited by the International Council for Online Educational Standards (ICOES). After passing any exams and completing a course successfully, students can opt to purchase an ICOES certificate from the third-party institution.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
