THE BORDER TERRIER

The Border Terrier is working terrier. He will become part of your family but he will always be a working dog.They are a highly intelligent breed but can be very willful and training from an early age is most important. "Quick to learn, slow to obey".

Border Terriers are named after the border between England and Scotland where they originate. They were used by farmers to hunt down foxes. Border Terriers had long enough legs to chase after horses and small enough bodies to fit into fox dens. Their versatility made them popular and over time they evolved from a casual farmer’s dog into a serious hunter’s dog working closely with other foxhounds.

BORDER TERRIER OBEDIENCE TRAINING

Obedience is vital in your dog.Having an obedient Border Terrier makes ownership of your pet an absolute pleasure! At Leeds Dog School we will train your dog to a high level in obedience.We also believe that this should involve the owner at every stage and so our training is one to one with you and your dog. It’s important that your dog obeys your commands and we work with you until you are confident in controlling your dog.

Owners with obedient pets get more satisfaction and have a stronger bond with their pet. As Border Terriers are working dogs owner training is vital so that the owner can enjoy having such an energetic pet.

Heel Work – walk to heel on the lead
Heel Work – walk to heel off the lead
Recall - return to you when called
Down – “down” on command
Sit – dog will sit when you stop walking
Come – come to you in the “frontal sit”

BORDER TERRIER PUPPY TRAINING

Training your new puppy should be started as soon as possible from 8 weeks. You’ll be amazed just how quickly they learn and at a very early age and it’s just fun for them and they love it!

Leeds Dog Training School train your puppy on a 1-2-1 visit to your home in Yorkshire rather than in classes as we believe this is much more effective.

Toilet Training - we will show you the easiest way to toilet train your puppy
Crate Training - we will show you how to crate train your puppy
Biting - we will show you how to stop "mouthing" or biting
Destructive Behaviour - we will show you how to stop destructive behaviour

STOPPING BAD BEHAVIOUR BY YOUR BORDER TERRIER

Some trainers believe that giving a dog treats is the best way to train but in our opinion relying on treats exclusively just does not work particularly with a Border Terrier. Your dog may learn how behave but only does it at because there's a treat at the end of it and many times treats just stop working. Essentially you are bribing the dog to behave properly. Our Border Terrier dog training solves problems with bad behaviour as this is our speciality. Many of the problems are very common and we work with your dog and just as importantly, with you at your home or on a walk, to solve any problems you may have.

Stop pulling on the lead
Stop lunging at other dogs
Stop barking at dogs & people
Stop jumping up at people
Stop aggression
Stop running away and not returning
Stop constant barking

At first I was nervous about my dog Kobi's training. Then after seeing the high level of expertise from Rob I knew from that moment that he was highly professional and trustworthy.
From an instant my dog was set straight by Rob in such a calm and controlled way. I have had five sessions with Rob and the amount of progress my dog has made is unreal.
I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants an obedient dog.
He certainly knows his stuff!

Ruth visited us to help with our rescue dog who has issues with people coming to the house. She gave us one command to use when he reacted and within 15 minutes he was learning that his actions were resulting in him being corrected. We are confident going forward that within a few weeks of using this technique his behaviour will have improved considerably. Thanks for your help & knowledge Ruth.

Angus (my 13 week old Lab puppy) and
I had our first training session with Ruth yesterday.
Ruth is clearly highly knowledgeable and experienced with our canine friends...her style, guidance, tips and suggestions were all both welcome and useful.
For example, Angus began the session very wary of his lead but, after a few minutes of Ruth’s teaching and support, he was trotting around the garden at my side...and I’m pleased to say that he happily repeated the act again this morning!
I’d certainly recommend Ruth very highly.

Rob has done three sessions with our Doberman puppy Kobi. From not wanting to go out of the door he is walking on a lead, walking to heel and sitting on command. I can not recommend Robs skill and commitment highly enough. If you want a well behaved disciplined dog - Rob is your man

Our one year old German shepherd was causing us a great deal of stress. Pulling on the lead and barking at everything that walked past our house. We contacted Leeds Dog school and within a week, we had an appointment and an hour later Maximus is great! Using the techniques we were taught, it will help us a live a stress free life. Thank you so much!

We met Ruth yesterday and already have noticed a massive positive change in our frenchies behaviour. We worked on many things including pulling on the lead and behaviour in the home. Ruth really explained why and what we needed to do and we are very happy with the results! Would definitely recommend! A lovely experience for us and our dog.

Fantastic service! I contacted them on the Friday evening and by Saturday afternoon I was booked in for the following weekend for a 1-2-1 session. Ruth cane round to see us and was very professional - listened and explained everything to us and answered all our questions and put us at ease that our problems are fixable and can be sorted. Would highly recommend!

We have a 10 month old border collie who I wanted to train in competitive obedience, however he'd picked up a few bad habits. Therefore I contacted Leeds Dog School and Rob came over to help. It was worth every penny and more, his understanding of dogs behaviour is incredible, and all the issues I had are completely gone. I would recommend Rob to anybody having issues with their dog!

Amazing! Ruth came to see us yesterday and within minutes I knew it was the best decision I made. The improvements are amazing. Biting, jumping up and attacking his lead have all stopped. He is walking so much better too! We will be keeping it up, and recommending you guys to everyone!

Within minutes of Ruth turning up she had Hardy calmed down and doing as he was told. She stopped his jumping and mouthing no problem at all. Taking him for a walk will be much more pleasurable now as Ruth showed us how to control Hardy around other dogs and people, then topped it off by showing us how to get him to drop the ball, he loves chasing the ball and bringing it back but hated giving it back 😂

Thanks Ruth the hour spent with you will definitely improve our lives with Hardy

A lovely lady called Ruth came to my house to help sort out some behavioural issues with my 8 month old wheaten terrier, he is very boisterous when greeting people and on the lead. Ruth was amazing, within 5 mins with her calm manner Eddie had calmed down and was under her control. It is still a work in progress for us but I feel I now have the tools to be more confident and in charge and am seeing positive results.

I can’t thank Ruth enough we had been having issues with our 8 month old English bull terrier, he is a lovely dog but v boisterous and that can scare people. Ruth spent a couple of hours with us teaching us technique to nip this in the bud! 24 hours in and Ernie is responding really well to the training, I would highly recommend the team, very professional with clearly a huge amount of knowledge about dogs..... thank you Ruth well worth the money 👍

Today we had a first visit from Rob to train our Flat Coated Retriever Mack. Within the first 5 minutes Rob had unbelievably changed his behaviour of barking and jumping up and mounting. Mack was also obedient and calm. With his expert guidance of both Mack and us as his owners ,we are thrilled with the incredible results so far . We are so pleased that we contacted Rob.
Paul Talkington 03 Jul 2019
Ruth came to see us to help stop our 8 week old puppy from biting our hands and feet. In just 1 hour she showed us a really helpful correction technique that he is gradually responding very well to. Ruth was happy to talk through any other issues/aspects and gave us great advice and support overall. Many thanks Ruth and Leeds Dog School, I am sure we'll be calling on you for help again in the near future!
