Lockdown 3 Services Update

Well it’s new year, new lockdown and once again, I am having to adapt to my business to meet the restrictions in place upon us all. Fortunately, I am able to continue to provide dog training services. As my lessons are classed as a business service, I can train a family group together. This is great news for those who bring their children as young handlers. For the sake of clarity, I will reiterate the services I am still able to provide.

Training As Usual

If you are booked in for a one-to-one lesson with me, all training is continuing as normal. I am also continuing to take bookings for future dates. I am fortunate to work outside in optimal conditions for health and wellbeing. Going outside for exercise is being actively encouraged and there is no limit on the time you are permitted to spend outside. Please do not attend your lesson if you feel unwell and cancel as soon as you are able to.

Virtual Dog Training

This service, created in response to the first lockdown, has proved incredibly popular. My virtual dog training packages are in huge demand. They are perfect for owners with new puppies and for dogs with behavioural problems. They are also becoming very popular with gundog owners wanting to continue to train their dogs, when travelling longer distances to train is not an option.

Residential Training

I am continuing to take dogs for residential training. Again, drop off and pick up can be done without close contact. I always keep my kennels spotless – while your dog may not be affected by this virus, this protects their general health. I am also ensuring that I have plentiful supplies of dog food, should delivery be disrupted.

Keep Walking Your Dog

Remember, while our movement is restricted, dogs should not be isolated or confined. Get out with your dog as you would do normally. If you think you may have to self-isolate, put a contingency plan in place to make sure your dog is exercised twice a day.

The situation continues to change rapidly. As always, I will keep my website and social media updated with any changes to my services. Let’s do all we can to stay well and get the country working again.
