We are pleased to announce training classes with a focus on adolescents and young adult dogs every Saturday, 1 pm to 3 pm, starting January 28th through March 4th.
The classes are for dogs aged 6 months to 18 months old.
This program is a major commitment on your part to help make your dog the best companion he/she can be. Attendance at all 6 classes is important and required as we will be building on the learned skills from the week before.
Classes will begin by introducing everything needed for a well-trained dog: focus, attention, control, and last but not least, fun! You’ll learn the basics, such as sit, down, stand, hand target, to go mat, and attention cues. Plus, how to apply these skills to achieve harmony in your home and daily life.
From there we will be building on those foundations and dive further into focus and attention to cues for reliability in a world of distractions.
We’ll introduce valuable real-world skills like leash manners, stay and release, 4 on the floor (no jumping or counter surfing), and recall (come when called).
Once those skills are learned, we’ll focus on carefully adding more complex work at an appropriate level for your dog. We’ll explore alternative ways to reward your dog and grow their off-leash reliability. We’ll get super recalls and focus with added distractions to get them ready for their life of adventures with you!
Properly trained teenagers grow into well-rounded adult dogs who know how to properly act around other dogs and humans alike.
Training sessions are limited to a maximum of 5 dogs, so availability may be limited.
