​LEASH WALKING, REACTIVITY AND GREETING CLASS
​

This is a specially designed class for you to get to know your dog and understand your dog on a higher level, and prepare you to handle a variety of situations inside your home and away from home.

Is leash walking enjoyable for you and your dog?
How does your dog feel about greeting people on walks and visitors coming to your home? 
​Is your dog is exuberant and very eager to meet people and/or dogs?

  • Window barking, yard barking
  • Loose leash walking and heel
  • Training gear - collars, harnesses and leashes
