*Although I recommend you try and pop along to each session as I believe in layered learning i.e building gradually upon training, if you cannot make a session or decide you would instead like to come to puppy group that week you can catch up by jumping in on the week you miss either on a different or the same day! We know how busy life can be so we will try and tailor our classes around you all as much as possible!
