Greyhound Training Classes
Written by KGR Admin

We strongly recommend you take your new adult dog to training classes, even if it just for the initial 6 week course.

It is essential that all puppies attend training classes.  Puppies are welcome to join as soon as their vaccinations are completed.  All puppies will start in a special socialising class, involving very basic training, playing and meeting other dogs and handlers.  These social skills are absolutely vital for a puppy, and will ensure that your pup grows into an adult dog that is confident and comfortable when he is around other dogs and people

Ron Mills owns the kennels where the KGR greyhounds and lurchers stay until they find a home.  He is a dog behaviourist and runs dog training classes in Wye, Dover and Gillingham.  Ron and Teresa now very used to greyhound and lurchers and if you have adopted a KGR dog they will probably have cared for your dog before you adopted him.   But of course all dogs are welcome to join, not just KGR ones.

Gefion Dog Training Club, welcome new members with all breeds, whether completely new dog owners or experienced handlers.

A 10 week course is just £60 – or if you have adopted a KGR dog they you can take advantage of the special discount price of just £50 per course.
