start date. (limited to 6 dogs)
4 weekly sessions/60 minutes
Saturdays, 9:30 – 10:30 a.m.

Dogs in the House*
*Dogs in the House will focus on the "stationary dog."  Sits, downs,
stays, not jumping up on people, going to a specific place (and then, of
course, staying there).
 

Jun 5-Jun 26, Sep 11-Oct 2

Dogs in Motion**
**Dogs in Motion will focus on attention and recalls, loose leash
walking, getting chicken bones found on the sidewalk out of your
dog's mouth (eeeuw!!!) and teaching your dog what calm behavior
looks like in the midst of riotous play.

Feb 27- Mar 20th, Apr 10-May 1,
Oct 30-Nov 20

You can take either class in any order, or feel free
to take the one that addresses your particular
problem area. There is overlap of general issues...
ones that really do need to be repeated....

Canine Good Citizen Class and Test
Obedience Through the Back Door (OBD)

This class is open to dogs of all ages--provided
they have no aggression issues.  The goal is to
sneakily teach your dog to behave while you both
are having fun!!!  This class is a hodge-podge of
fun training tricks and games that my dogs and I
have stumbled upon over the years.
