Service Description

This 4 week group class is taught by Independent Contractor Trainer Emily Helin. The class is for puppies and dogs 5 months and older. No previous class experience is required but it is preferred that you have experience training with a marker (clicker or verbal). The focus of the class is on developing a positive relationship with your puppy or dog through play, games, foundation training skills (skills for both handler and puppy), and more. Build your puppy's attention and focus on you right from the start! This is a perfect follow up to a regular puppy class and it's excellent on it's own as well. Dogs should should be comfortable working in close proximity to other dogs on leash. There is no off leash play in this class, the emphasis is on effective socialization while building your dog's attention and focus on you. WHAT TO BRING TO CLASS: • Water, water bowl and poop bags • High value treats and treat pouch • TWO of your dog’s favorite tug toys. • 6’ (max length) leash, no retractable leashes please • Flat collar, Gentle Leader, Halti or harness (no shock, choke or prong collars allowed) Class meets Monday at 6 PM for four consecutive weeks March 6, 13, 20, and 27.
