Why enrol on the Waiting List?

If you watch the web site regularly you'll have realised that the Working Dog Training Schools have limited numbers and, they are generally filled from the waiting list.

People on the waiting list receive prior notice (by email) of the dates of the next course and they can complete their enrolment. If any places remain, we then advertise. Normally, the course is filled a couple of weeks before it is held, so you need to be quick!

.

How do you enrol?

Send an email listing the following information

  • Name or Names of the people who wish to attend.
    Your home address.
  • Your email address.(Private-not business)
  • Your home phone number (land line).

.

What we will do.

We will send you a return email advising you that you have been placed on the waiting list and ask you to confirm.

If we have any queries we will ring you.

You will be advised when the next Working Dog Training School is to be held to give you an opportunity to enrol early.

 

If its been more than 2 years since you came to a Working Dog Training School you will notice some changes.

Over the years Ben has modified and improved the course... "Ben Page's Natural Method". The new notes form a complete curriculum ... a simple set of steps starting at the very beginning, basic commands right through to advanced techniques.

The course is now much more structured – it’s divided into modules with clear instructions at each stage.

The course also covers more about the way working dogs think. Giving you a better understanding from the dog’s point of view.
After attending you will have more ‘tools’ to learn how you can become a better leader and develop your dog's potential and your potential.

If this is the first time you wish to attend, it's not essential to have or bring a dog ... give us a call if this is the case and we'll be happy to assist.

Students ages range from as young as 9 years old and many senior stockmen in their 70's have attended... so no one is too old or too young. Here is a typical comment from a past student .. "Education is cheap ... consider the alternative". (That was after damaging his Land Cruiser quite badly whilst mustering without a dog)
