Do you have a dog that needs to start working on some manners?

Does your dog have basic manners, but you want to work on adding in some distance, and distractions?

Then this is the class for you! This class is open to any dog 8 months or older or any dog that has completed our Puppy Kindergarten class. We work on skills such as sit, down, stay, leave it, place, come when called, and leash walking, individually as well as around other dogs, people, and in outside environments.  While working on all of these skills we will be developing trust and confidence within your dog.

The goal of this class is to apply the skills learned and proof them with the “3D’s” model.  This is distance, duration, and distractions. We want you and your dog to be successful while starting your journey! We have set a curriculum but try to modify each skill to the particular dog’s level of learning, as there is no cookie cutter way to dog training.

If you are ready to get your dog prepared for the settings above, then this is the class for you!

Note: The first class is a non-dog class, where the human is getting the education, not the dog. This allows all students to be set up and ready for the second class when they bring their dog. The hope is to provide students with everything they need to have their first class be a successful one.

**This class is not for reactive dogs, or dogs that struggle in class environments. Please reach out to Megan to schedule a pre-class evaluation if you are unsure if this will be the right fit!**
