Puppy Home Visit

Do You Want Your Puppy to Be Well Mannered and Nice to Be Around?

At Acer Gundog Training we understand that bringing a new puppy into your home can be a daunting experience. Sure, there are plenty of books you can read, but a lot of what you read can be confusing.

Our aim is to help you get it right, from the very start of the relationship with your dog, so that you can both enjoy life together.

Our Puppy Home Visit is not only designed to equip you to deal with those early issues from the whirlwind that just arrived in your house, but also to enable you to get some basic training underway.

What Is The Puppy Home Visit?

The Puppy Home Visit can be undertaken before vaccinations are complete. You’ll be ready to join one of our Gundog Puppy Classes with some of the basics mastered and better equipped to work with real-life distractions such as being outdoors for the first time and training with other dogs present.

Home Visit

By visiting you at home we can see the environment in which your dog lives and we can meet the whole family. We can answer any questions you may have about how to care for the new addition to the family, feeding, sleeping through the night, toilet training, nipping, or jumping up.

Individual Training Session

The best place to start training the basics is away from distractions, especially other dogs. During your Home Visit, we can devote our time together to developing the behaviours that you want to see and give a real head-start before you come to puppy class. It is up to you who in the family comes to this session, but involving all parties is a great way for the family to build a bond and enjoy being with your puppy as he grows up.

Immediate Access To Online Gundog Puppy Course

What our clients say…

“I have an 8 week old Golden and cannot recommend the puppy home visit enough. Personal visits are always going to be more expensive than group classes (which we will also be starting) but the knowledge and advice and peace of mind that Mark gave me in those 2 hours was absolutely priceless. I was feeling a little overwhelmed and nervous – I wanted to make sure I was doing everything right and not accidentally causing problems in the future. Now I feel really confident and so much more relaxed training and playing with my little one in the proper way! Mark answered all of my million questions and gave me really important tips about things I hadn’t even considered, even after reading all of the recommended books. If you are getting a new puppy, I really recommend you book yourself in for a home visit and get started on the right foot in that precious time between picking the puppy up and starting puppy classes when vaccinated! You don’t get that time back – it’s an important investment!” – Lucy Earl & Diego
