Beginning Group Classes
In the beginning level classes, we'll use neat games,
toys and food treats to teach your puppy or dog the behaviors you want. You'll learn the best way to communicate with your individual dog and how to deliver rewards with good placement and timing for maximum learning impact. We'll also talk about how to "read" dog body language, stop unwanted behaviors and how to recognize and promote healthy play between dogs.

Puppy Manners 2: The Next Level
For pups under 1 year that have completed the basic class
5 Week Class - TBA Cost: $95.00
In the first class, we started working on
fundamental behaviors like Sit, Down and Come. In this fun-filled
5-week class, we’ll take what we learned in the basic class and start
applying it to “real-life” situations and scenarios. Each session will
introduce multiple exercises revolving around a theme, including:
- Recalls out of dog-dog play & around other distractions
- Stays, Impulse Control & good “door” manners
- Building confidence, attention & focus
- Walking politely on leash in a challenging world
- Play, games & exercise for better manners
We’ll
also work on a “handler’s choice” where each person picks a behavior
that’s especially important to their team and we develop a plan to
address it.
Class requirements:
Permission of instructor. This class is for pups & adolescents
under 1 year of age that have attended the basic Puppy 1 class or equivalent private lessons. Space is limited, so register early to guarantee your space! All pups must be current on vaccinations.
