We cover the basics that every family companion should know. Name recognition, walking nicely on a loose leash, sit, down, off, attention, wait, and behaving around other dogs and people, as well as polite greetings. You will learn a trick each week to amaze your friends and family. Our last class is a party, with fun, games, and a prizes.
Our methods are not "Plug and Play" methods, meaning that we are flexible in our techniques, allowing for individuality within each handler/dog team, and even within each family/pack unit.
In the first class, each handler will fill out a detailed "Canine Personality Profile", a unique, accurate questionnaire invented by Susan Vollhard. The scores in this profile will give us a detailed insight into your dog's personality, based on its innate and learned drives, which will help us suggest a personalized training program to fit your individual lifestyle and fulfill your dog's needs. For this reason, classes are limited in size, and attendance in Lesson 1 is mandatory.
