LEASH & GREET
​LEASH WALKING AND GREETING CLASS
​

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?

In this class you will learn practical techniques on how to improve your leash walking experience, making it more enjoyable for both you and your dog.
​
If your dog is exuberant and very eager to meet people and/or dogs, we will discuss and practice ways to control these encounters.

Some dogs are fearful around people and other dogs.  Together we will determine what makes your dog most comfortable in these situations.
​We will address:
  • ​Paying attention skills 
  • Reactivity and distractions such as animals, cars, bikes, people, dogs
  • Loose leash walking and heel
  • Pulling
  • Training gear - collars, harnesses and leashes
  • Leave it and drop it
  • Properly greeting people (for both exuberant and fearful dogs)
  • Seeing other dogs out on walks
  • Dog communication and dog body language  
  • Visitors at your home
  • ​and more......

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS CLASS IS NOT FOR AGGRESSIVE OR HIGHLY REACTIVE DOGS.   Your dog does not have to be perfect, but must be able to function in a class environment.   If not, reactivity is best addressed in private lessons.
