Single Session Workshops

K9 Connect is proud to offer once-off workshops targeting specific training needs. It's a great way to get the training tips and techniques for your area of focus.
These hands-on, interactive sessions are with your dog. We step you through the training in class, then you get to go out to the big wide world afterwards to keep practising.

Puppy Puzzles

This is a 60-minute workshop all about teaching your puppy important life skills. We're not talking about sits and drops here, we want your puppy to learn how to solve problems that will help build a confident adult dog who is able to cope in new situations. This FUN and interactive class will take your training out of the box for you and your puppy.

* Check session details for specific focus topic of the class.

Suitable for puppies from 8 weeks to 12months of age.

Helping the Boisterous dog

You're probably considering this workshop because you have a dog who jumps up on people, pulls and barks to meet other dogs, chases children zooming by on scooters etc.

We want to help you to teach calm to your dog so you can enjoy your dog and find the fun together in a respectable manner.

Our 1-hour workshop is perfect to get some great ideas to help your dog to relax! Lots of training tips, but also a good discussion on the reason behind your dog's behaviours.

Class Dates

Loose Leash Walking

This workshop is ideal if you have a dog that likes to pull like crazy on a walk and forgets that you are attached to the other end of the leash.

We want to help you look forward to, and enjoy, walks with your dog again, rather than put them off because it's frustrating and not enjoyable.

Our 60 minute workshop is perfect to get your walking back on track! Lots of training tips, but also a good discussion on the reason behind the pulling and the learning psychology involved.

Suitable for dogs over 6months

Helping Shy Dogs

This is the perfect class for owners of dogs that are shy, quiet, reserved and maybe a bit worried about the world.

Your dog may be:

Worried about other dogs,
Worried about people
Cautious of the weird and wonderful things in our world.

We want to help you to teach your dog that being brave is ok. We want you and your dog to enjoy getting out and about together and to find the fun in a more confident manner.

Crates are Great!

Crate training has been ever increasing in popularity over the last decade, with most puppies now introduced to a crate in one way or another. However, building VALUE for the crate and teaching our dogs that their crate can be their den, or nice place to chill out is often the missing piece of the puzzle.

Changing your aspect of crate training, and seeing how we can engage our dogs to eagerly go to their crates and STAY there is a key element to this workshop.

Open to ALL dogs over the age of 12 weeks,
