Only the Essentials 

People want dogs who joyfully run to them when they call. They want to go on walks without having their arm torn off. They want to bustle  around the kitchen while their dog calmly waits on their mat. This course teaches your dog to want those things too!

This class focuses on teaching your dog to come when called, walk politely on leash and lie calmly on a mat when you need a break. It also includes problem solving for real life situations such as being able to manage your dog while company is over and teaching your dog to respond to you even with distractions.

This is a 6 week course which includes:
-Your own clicker
-Informative handouts
-A small online portion to the class, which gives students access to fun videos and homework to help truly understand the course material.
