For puppies 8 to 16 weeks. In this class, we start with basic foundation skills. Our main purpose is puppy socialization, where we start working on all things puppy. Class is 4-50 min sessions @ $105 + tax.
DOG MANNERS 1
For dogs over 4 months old and/or graduates of Puppy Head Start. To find success with your dog, you must first build your dog’s ability to focus on you in a distracting environment. Every week we will work on loose leash walking and come when called (recall) through the use of fun games. We will also cover the basics of crate manners, sit, down, drop it and door manners. All puppies under 1 year old, that complete this 6 week class are eligible for the AKC Puppy Star Award. Class is 6-50 min sessions @ $139 + tax.
DOG MANNERS 2 – BEYOND THE BASICS
We move on to some of the more difficult skills, like recall, sit/down and group stays with distractions. We’ll also work on more challenging behaviors like “Park It”, and “Leave it” in group exercises.
