Rockwood Dog Training School Caerphilly
The 10 week courses costs £160.00 per dog including £40.00 non refundable registration fee.
Dog aggression, separation
anxiety and destructive dogs are just a few of the psychological and behaviour problems that we
deal with. Ellen Ball is a highly qualified, second generation, behaviourist with 40 years of experience. (see Ellens Profile).
Agility is introduced in the Intermediate classes, once basic obedience has been achieved.
Rockwood Dog Training is based in Caerphilly, South Wales. The
training centre is located at the base of a beautiful mountain valley
and although set in lush welsh countryside is just minutes from the
centre of Cardiff. It has good access off Blackbrook Road with a car parking area.
The training takes place indoors with a purpose built three span Polly
tunnel with astro turf floor which provides a large and ample area
protected from the weather. At one end we have a tiered viewing gallery,
which seats seventy people. It is used for talks, seminars and for
members of the family to watch their dog working during class.
At the other end we have two private consultation rooms and a
photo room which is used for the registration of dogs for filming. We
also have a one acre fenced off area for outdoor training during the
summer months.''
At Rockwood Dog Training we pride ourselves with the style of
training that we provide. Be under no illusion there is no quick fix
solution, it takes hard work, motivation and lots of patients to achieve
a well trained dog. With the advent of many TV programmes covering dog
training it can easily appear that behaviour problems can be solved
overnight.
Much of the hard work and time that has to be put in has
been edited out. Our Instructors are here to train you how to train your
dog. As you are learning a new skill, just like with any other skill,
it will take time. Once your handler skills have been developed, only
then will you start to see the benefit of your instruction. More Information
