Understanding Your Collie Talks

There are so many misleading pieces of behavioural advice out there, and people really struggle with it, so we now run a basic 'Understanding Your Collie' talk.

You cannot correctly understand and solve problems with your dog, unless you have a basic understanding of him or her and their natural instincts. We'll be discussing accepted behavioural 'theories', and how they fit in with the Collie instinct. We'll talk about what makes collies so special, and why they are so misunderstood in 'mainstream' training - which is odd when you consider they are one of the most common dogs around. We will talk about the history of the Collie and how they originated.

These sessions start at around 11, break for lunch, and then do half an hour one-on-one for everyone attending for any questions they may have with their dog. If you need more time and maybe a 1 on 1 behavioural at a later date, you will be given the opportunity to 'book in'.

These sessions cover the VERY basics, which seem to be ignored by all other classes, giving you an overview of why your collie behaves in the way that they do. You do not have to have a collie to attend, but if you do, bring him/her along - along with your normal walking lead / collar / harness, etc.

Cost: £20 including refreshments. You will need to bring your own lunch.
Numbers will be limited on each session, or there would be no 1-to-1 time.

Booking:
To book your place, please check out the available dates below, and then email us on: wiccaweys@aol.com or call: 07905 203254. You can also sign up via the Wiccaweys Forum.

WARNING: We will be absolutely honest, blunt and to the point. If you don't agree with our advice or suggestions, that is up to you, but we will not get into arguments about other behavioural theories - these sessions are to learn the way we at Wiccs interpret collie behaviour - not an excuse for an argument over other people's theories.
You must be open-minded and want to learn the Wiccs way of understanding collies.

Testimonals

"Hi Paul
I have to say a big thank you for today. Cassie says a thank you for tiring out my big sis. Ginny is flat out after a hard days growling.
I personally think every new Wiccaweys dog owner should attend one of these day's ASAP. It would save so much misunderstanding of their dogs behaviour and needs. It certainly has made me think differently about how to understand my two girls from now on
