Lockdown Deja Vu!
Our Covid-19 Update August 2021
Well it feels a little bit like Deja Vu being pushed back into lockdown here in NSW this month.
It’s really disappointing that we cannot operate our classes in person, and we understand the feelings of all owners and really feel your your canine family members.
We do have alternatives that we a passionately trying to offer to everyone
- You can wait until you are back in person and postpone – even though this is the great unknown in regards to a timeframe or,
- You can join our online classes which will to operate during lockdown.
How can online dog training and behaviour classes work? Julie has made a blog here about how operate our online lessons. Please take a few minutes to watch and find out how and why we operate them!
We know there is some hesitation around online zoom lessons and learning, but at Barkers in balance we really have had great feedback, and the lessons are very interactive, in your own space, recordings of the sessions are made, emails and instructions are still provided and you can ask the same questions you would in person – all from your own home .
We are live in real time, and giving you immediate feedback as you work with your dog. We are still able to individualize instruction to you and your dog!
We have operated classes in mid 2020 online and almost all our clients were totally satisfied with what they received. Many of them remarked at how amazed it worked.
One of the testimonials are below from our online classes in 2020:
I started with Julie doing an online good manners course- I was a bit sceptical about how useful it would be but the amount of information I got was incredible! I have done multiple courses with Barkers in Balance and would highly recommend both their online or face to face classes/ 1 on 1s. The changes in behaviour in our two dogs has been amazing!
– Tegan
- Being in isolation, you have more time to spend with your dog and training
- Engaging in prevention rather then cure
- Brings joy! Not much joy in the world right now so why not give it a go
- Once again you received a detailed email of your lesson after and a recording, so you can go back and do it again and again until you get it!
Ofcourse we will be here in person, when the lockdown is over – but as we know – it is the great unknown about when that will be. These classes are proactive which is A LOT Better than non-action
We appreciate your understanding and we know this is a hard time for all of us. But go on, give you and your dog a chance to build a working relationship with us at Barkers in Balance
