I work in a school. My students are fantastic. They are very cheerful and playful but they enthusiastically do the tasks I suggest just to please me. There are no common school problems with bullying, stealing pocket money, calling names, or playing telephone games during the classes. They never do it. I think you can guess what kind of school I’m talking about and who my students are. Right. It’s a school for dogs and my students are dogs of different breeds and ages. I’m a professional dog trainer.

Our school is called B&S, where the letters stand for the words Brave and Smart. Being brave and smart is, in my opinion, natural for dogs. If a dog is not like that, it’s always the owner’s fault, not the dog’s. I’m sure that every dog needs professional training.

B&S School provides courses for dogs of different ages. Our youngest students are puppies from only 8 to 20 weeks old. Then we hold schooling for our teenagers − the dogs from 5 months to 2 years old. The third age group are adult dogs. They are not difficult to train but we often have to correct some of their bad habits like digging, chewing, barking, or biting. Finally, we have our senior students − the dogs from above 9 years old. They prove that it’s never too late to learn and that the old proverb “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” is absolutely wrong!

Depending on the age and the learning goals we recommend different courses. If the owner wants the dog to behave properly and know commands like ‘stay’, ‘wait’, ‘come’, ‘down’, ‘leave it’, we offer a basic training course. When we have specific training goals, we design special programmes and teach the dog special skills − from performing tricks to assisting blind people. Needless to say, we never use punishment in our training practice. And there is no need − positive encouragement works miracles!
