Due to the current circumstances the Club is closed until further notice. Linslade Obedience and Ringcraft Club runs four dog training classes on Tuesday evenings. The first class, the Puppy Class  teaches the the dog the basics of understanding it’s handler and the handler the basics of understanding the puppy. The next Class, 2  is for graduates from the Puppy Class and also where we start ‘rescue dogs’ that have little or no previous training. Here we work towards the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Bronze certificate. Class 3 is for graduates from Class 2, here the focus is on developing the skills to enable the handlers to achieve a KCGCDS Silver certificate. The final Class, 4, is for handlers aiming to achieve a KCGCDS Gold certificate. This class also has long standing members who have reached the Gold level and use the class to maintain their dogs enthusiasm for learning and, hopefully to provide a entertaining evening out for the dog. All Classes are structured around the relevant Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme exercises and are based on ‘reward’ based training. All dogs are required to wear a legal means of identification and to be able to present a valid vaccination certificate. It is a legal requirement that all dogs are required to have a working microchip, the Club will check dogs as part of the Good Citizen Scheme and advise owners of their legal obligations if necessary.
