Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
In this fun weekly ongoing class, this successful Certified Dog Trainer will be working with learners to teach them how to train their own dogs. This teacher uses positive techniques and commands. This is an ongoing class and students can join anytime. Each meeting, we will be learning to teach a command for dogs or older puppies such as sit, stay, recall, place, loose leash walking, leave-it, etc.  We will also learn tricks and play games with our dogs. Further, we will discuss our favorite dog breeds and learn how to bond with our four legged friends! Students will have the opportunity to practice training their dogs in the class and receive correction and helpful instruction from the teacher.  #superstar
