All dogs learn quickly with consistent training and thrive on positive reinforcement. Patience, practice, and heaps of love go a long way in turning an untrained pet into a loyal and responsive dog.


When you create an activity that the dog gets rewards and positive feedback, the dog will start looking for direction, thus developing a strong bond.

Course Curriculum:

  • Walking at Heel. About turns, circle left and right
  • Sit and Down-Stay.
  • Come Front.
  • Finish.

Through positive reinforcement and fun games, students strengthen their relationship with their dog and gain a greater ability to concentrate and obey around distractions. Learn and practice simple commands, such as sit, down--staying in both positions, coming when called, walking on a loose leash, "Leave it", and more! Furthermore, we'll cover basic learning theory and teach you how to recognize your dog's thoughts and feelings to improve your communication.
Improvement comes with repetitive training; you will build trust and respect with your four-legged friend and become a good working team.  

Four classes will give you an excellent start to a well-behaved dog that looks to you for direction.

Bring training treats to class for use as rewards for a job well done. It's also a good idea to have some high-reward treats to reward your dog through the session. Small, bite-sized treats are ideal.

Equipment Needed:

  • Collar. Bring what you have since different collars work on different dogs. Once I see the dog the first week, I will be able to recommend the correct collar.
  • Leash. 6-foot nylon or leather

Requirements:

Age: All dogs 6 months and older.
