Beginner Dog Obediance

This is the first step in teaching dog obedience. We teach the basics, sit, down, stay then we move into walking on leash without pulling, go to a mat, touch, impulse control and focus games. Please plan to get to class early. By getting to class a little early you can get your dog acclimated to the new surrounding environment. Please do not feed your dog prior to class. Plan to bring high value treats to class such as chicken, leftover steak, hot dogs or cheese. Something that your dog really likes but only gets on occasion and some of their regular food or not as high value. Also, bring some light colored treats (one example is string cheese) because when we throw the treat out, light colored treats are easier for the dog to see in the grass. You need to use a flat bucket collar or a martingale for this obedience class. No dogs with aggressive history.
