The first session of this six-week series will be held online. The remaining five classes will be held in-person at HSSV. Attendance at the Week 1 orientation is mandatory. If you miss this first session, you may not be allowed to attend the rest of the course. In addition to talking about how dogs learn and addressing common behavior challenges, we will go over the training methods and equipment that you will need for our onsite sessions, and the class protocols for the rest of the course. Please note that no make-up sessions will be offered. Aside from week 1, this class is held outdoors, in the dog training yard. In case of inclement weather, including rain or excessive heat, class may be moved to Zoom or postponed. Any skipped class dates will be added to the end of the course, on the same day and time as the regular class time.
