FAMILY DOG MANNERS CLASS - LEVEL 1
This class focuses on building solid foundation behaviors that help dogs become confident, well-mannered companions. You and your dog will practice everyday skills such as sit, down, polite greeting, loose-leash walking, and leave-it, all taught in a positive and supportive environment. We will also introduce important safety exercises:
- Teaching your dog an emergency recall helps ensure they will return to you if they ever get off leash—for example, if they bolt through an open door.
- Gentle body handling helps prepare your dog for calm, stress-free veterinary visits.
- A U-turn is a useful skill that allows you to quickly guide your dog out of stressful situations.
- Supervised separation helps prepare your dog to stay comfortable and confident when, incase of emergencies, a stranger holds the leash.
This class is open to everyone—there are no prerequisites—making it a great starting point for dogs of all ages and experience levels.
FAMILY DOG MANNERS CLASS - LEVEL 2
This class helps deepen and strengthen the skills your dog already knows while adding new challenges to build real-life reliability. In this class, we focus on strengthening core behaviors such as sit, down, loose-leash walking, and important safety skills like emergency recall, supervised separation, and a dependable “leave it.” We also introduce helpful new behaviors:
This class can also be beneficial to those starting in dog sports. Improve your recall, stays, and even practice heeling instead of loose-leash walking. |
