IMDT Partnership Grades & Life Skills Sessions

Our IMDT Partnership Grades (Institute of Modern Dog Trainers) and Life Skills sessions are designed for dogs over six months old who can focus and settle around other dogs. If your dog finds this challenging, we recommend our one-on-one sessions for young dogs.

The IMDT Partnership Grades range from Level 1 to Level 6, allowing you to progress through each stage upon successful completion. These sessions are booked in 8-week blocks, with the flexibility to rebook as needed.

Training covers essential skills such as:

• Loose lead walking
• Recall 
• Emergency stops 
• Conducting health checks on your dog. More importantly, we teach you how to apply these skills in everyday situations beyond our training facility.

What’s Included in IMDT Partnership grades & Lifeskills:

• 8 weeks of training videos and demonstrations: revisit and review everything you've learned each week at your convenience. 
• Training Guides & Information Sheets: Handy Resource to support your sessions.
• 7 Day Support: Ongoing access to your trainer, for guidance throughout the sessions.
• Affiliate Discounts: Enjoy special offers on essentials like beds, treats, toys and more.
• Certificate and Rosette: on completion of each grade.
