Each class focuses on a behavior (sit, down, touch, etc.), body handling, positive exposure to new people, dogs and things (AKA socialization) and trainer-led free play. Puppies must have had at least two DHPP vaccines to attend.
Levels 1, 2 and 3 begin building a solid foundation for many important behavior such as sit, down, stay and loose leash walking. As your dog graduates level to level we'll increase distractions, change locations and surfaces and add more advanced skills!
Once you've mastered Levels 1-3 we will work on proofing your dog's behaviors and beginning working on CGC, Community CGC and Urban CGC skills. Even if you choose not to test (though we hope you do - it's a lot of fun!) there are skills that will benefit your dog in every day life and allow teach them to be a good citizen wherever you take them!
