We have hot and cold weather policies which are outlined here.

We do not hold a waiting list as such. However, if you sign up here, we will notify you when enrolment opens. Please book early on that day as our classes fill very quickly.

Eight dogs with one instructor and at least one assistant

Children over 12 years of age may, under adult supervision, and with permission of the class instructor, train a dog in class if certain conditions are met. Please see our Junior Handler Policy.

If your dog gets something wrong, we simply try again. If he still gets it wrong, we will lower our expectations slightly and then reinforce the attempt he is making, helping him build a behaviour with which he and you are comfortable.

At CBS we have qualified dog behavioural trainers who will help you if your dog is struggling. If, within the first four weeks of term, and after discussion with you, it is determined that your dog is not suitable for class, there is the possibility of refunding in order to help you with private consultation costs.

We are a School so, yes there is homework. We can’t expect our dogs to become really great dogs at home, or in the street or out with the family if we don’t practice with them in all of those situations.

Each training level has set criteria to be achieved before being able to graduate into the next level. These behaviours are marked off during the term with formal graduation on the last week of term.
