Group Lessons
Group classes are a great way for owners to learn dog language, how to teach cues, how dogs learn, and to meet other owners and dogs. Group classes are a great value! Classes are small, so everyone gets personal asttention and encourages a great learning environment. Only positive techniques are used because science has proven that positive reinforcement techniques are the best way for animals (and humans!) to learn and retain that knowledge.
Owners learn how to work and communicate with their dog(s) so learning can continue when classes are done. Cues (commands) are taught but we also discuss environment management, menteal stimulation, food, exercise, and any other questions the humans have.

Out and About
Walking and being in public with your dog
Does your dog take you for a walk? Do you want walks to be more enjoyable? Would you like your dog to focus more on you and not on squirrels?
Physical exercise + mental stimulation = a tired dog (and human). Walks should be fun for humans and dogs. Dogs don't have to pay attention all the time, but should care who is on the other end of the leash.
