Silver Level
Who it is for
Silver level is for dogs who have completed Bronze level, as it builds on the behaviours already learned during this initial level.
What is covered
Skills building upon Bronze level. At the conclusion of Silver, students have the option to undertake an evaluation to earn their Level 2 Pet Dog Ambassador certification. Level 2 is the entry level for dogs over the age of nine months.
Course length
Our 9 week course contains 7 weeks of new learning and 2 revision weeks. This allows for the occasional bad weather, when class may be cancelled.
