PUPPY owners can teach their pet obedience and new skills during free training sessions in the borough.

Tower Hamlets Council is holding a six week course, starting next month for puppies which have been fully vaccinated.

It is part of a drive to encourage responsible dog ownership and reduce the amount of nuisance mutts on the streets.

The course, run by the council’s dog wardens, starts on February 2 at the Teviot Centre, Wyvis Street, Bow.
