Roaming Recalls
Distraction Recalls
Introduction to Chase Recalls (Premack)
Strong Leaves (the things you really don't want your dog to get!)
Stays with distractions
Waits in front (Dog up ahead you need them to stop quickly)

Impulse Control
Just Dogs Puppy/Adult Beginner Class
The rate at which dogs learn and the inspiration they need for learning differs from dog to dog, just like us humans we take on board information more easily if we are having fun. The way our dogs interact with the world will play a part in what motivates them and that information is fantastic for us to be able to tune into helping them learn new skills and desirable behaviours. Our 5 week course covers a range of activities to help with:
Recall
Loose Lead Walking and lead skills
Play Motivation
Jumping Up
Puppy Biting
Confidence
Social Meets (People and Dogs)
Clicker training
Including, watch me, sits, downs, stays, leave etc...

Just 'SCENT' DOGS
offers workshops covering different aspects of scent-work, Active and Passive. Have you ever watched service dogs in their job, hunting out the drugs or explosives or finding people? Here at Just Dogs we teach you and your dog those exact methods!
Just ‘Scent’ DOGS
workshops will involve training your dog to recognise the target scent, teaching you to understand how scent works, moves and contaminates plus how to understand the signals your dog will be sending.
On completing a
Just ‘SCENT’ DOGS
workshop you will become a member of the monthly scentwork club which will provide exciting opportunities, including scent-walks, scent experiences and an opportunity to work towards Scentwork UK competition levels.
Regardless of your dogs age, ability, breed or disability all dogs enjoy and excel in scentwork, so get in touch and give it a try.
Book onto Just Dogs Scent Workshops
It is always useful to get as much background information as possible about your dog, the issues, your set-up and your family. So we normally kick off our consultation with a telephone call to establish the facts. We know you all love to talk about your dog/dogs but during this call we will ask certain questions that will arm us and you with the right tools to get you on track. Once we have had a chat we can then book in your consultation with a time and date to suit.
Our initial meetings usually last just over an hour or two depending on the issues and we can agree any follow-up consultations at that time. Before we meet we will ask you to fill out our booking form that you can find on our booking page so that we are covered by our insurance and it's as simple as that. You can then start to build that great relationship with your dog in the knowledge that our experience will get you on the right path.
Book your 1:1 Consultation with Just DOGS
You may already be participating in scent competitions, or have completed a scent workshop and are now looking to give your dog some new and exciting experiences in the world of scentwork. Why not try finding scent on some old steam trains and carriages, or seek out the scent in a football ground, get your gloves and scarf on and search in an ice rink. These experiences provide great opportunity whether you are a novice or a pro. We run several scent experiences throughout the year at various locations. If your dog is already working on Clove, Gun-Oil or Kong these experiences are a great way to explore some really exciting venues. Some of our experiences include: Nene Valley Railway, Peterborough United Football Club, Planet Ice and Peterborough Business Park.
Each of the Just Dogs Scent Experiences are advertised on our events page. Once you have selected the experience, sign-up and you will be sent confirmation of your place on that experience.
