The nursery children are really enjoying learning all about how to care for pets. Today they took part in puppy training. First in class they watched some dogs doing agility courses at Crufts. Then they got into pairs, a puppy and an owner in each pair. Outside they taught their puppies to walk on a lead and ‘heel’, then things got more energetic. As you can see they had a great time taking their puppies over the agility course.
