Herding
Engage your herder’s natural instincts with Cultured Canines' Herding Class!
Weekday lessons and Weekend afternoon lessons available!
Herding is a fun and incredible opportunity for your dog! We primarily work with herding breeds, but exceptions can be made on a case by case basis. We are more than happy to work with upright herding breeds! If you just want to have fun with your pooch or have goals to trial in CKC, AHBA and beyond, we are here to help!
Herding is not appropriate for dogs with reactivity, aggression or dangerous prey drive issues.
(Exceptions may apply to previous Cultured Canines training clients.)
Herding will not prevent or fix any behaviour issues. If you have concerns about your dog’s behaviour please see our C.O.O.L. Course
Instinct tests
Cost: $70+GST
Instinct tests are typically around 10-15 minutes long, but sometimes shorter or longer depending on your dog. The goal is to assess if your dog has herding instinct and for you to learn about herding. We will discuss your goals and decide together if pursing more lessons is a good choice!
Herding lessons
Cost: $70+GST
Lessons are typically around 15-25 minutes long, but sometimes shorter or longer depending on your dog. The goal is to always end on a good note! Most often a short lesson has more value than a longer one.
If there are multiple dogs booked on the same day, we will allow them to take turns so each dog gets a break.
Please note that if your dog poses a serious risk to the trainer or livestock, your lesson will be ended and you will not receive a refund. We require at least 24 hours notice when cancelling lessons. Fees are non refundable but are transferable if notice is given more than 24 hours in advance.
