Temperament Assessments

If your dog has been involved in court action regarding aggressive behaviour, Basil can provide a written testimony of your dog’s character. Basil’s Temperament Assessments have been used on numerous occasions in Courts of Law, which has in most cases, reprieved an otherwise condemned animal. Assessments usually consist of 1 – 1.5 hour duration excluding type-written documentation.

Assessments do not have to be as formal as stated above. You may only wish to have an expert opinion of a dog you are about to acquire, or have a dog assessed due to its unusual behaviour. This might include, tail chasing, aggression towards specific people, coprophagy (stool eating), separation anxiety (shown by destructive behaviour when owners are away) or any other unusual behaviour.

Policies regarding refunds & bookings

No Refunds under any circumstances. We will not refund any portion of fees under any circumstances including if you have a change‐of‐mind and/or return your dog to a shelter, breeder or due to COVID‐19 Lock-downs. However, we will provide you credit for any unused portion towards another course. We will not transfer any unused portion to private or home training sessions. If lock-down occurs and we must suspend classes, your course will resume at the same session (week) it was suspended on.

Bookings will not be held unless payment made prior to course commencement.

If you have purchased a KPT course and due to COVID-19 lockdowns your pup becomes too old for that course, we will transfer the payment as a deposit towards a Basic Obedience course with no administration costs.
