Household Manners
Household Obedience ($70) MaryAnn Schropp
Having a dog in the family is one of life's joys. This class will use positive reinforcement to teach the skills to have a happy, well-mannered dog in your home. This is a beginner level class. Skills will include: sit, down, stay, come, leave it, and loose leash walking. Issues such as crate training and specific questions/answers will be addressed as needed. Dogs must be comfortable enough around people and dogs to be ready for training. Who knows? You and your dog may some day participate in dog sports...and this class is the first step. Bring lots of small, soft treats...such as commercial training treats, or cut larger treats into small pieces. No prong collars. Limit 6 dogs.
Games for Change! ($70) Louise Peacock
Does your dog focus on everything but you when out and about? Do you want a better relationship with your dog? If you answered yes, then this is the class for you! Studies show that dogs, like children, learn best through play. We will be playing games that help your dog choose you over the environment and deepen the bond between you. We'll be sneaking in obedience and they'll never notice because it's all done through games! Limit 8 dogs
