Wouldn’t it be nice for your daily walk to be a relaxing experience rather than a rowdy romp as your dog drags you down the street? Are you confident your dog would come back to you in an emergency? Join us for this 3-week, in-person class that will focus exclusively on the skills designed to teach your dog to walk politely on a leash and to come when called, even in the midst of distractions and temptations. In addition to not pulling, we will also work on how to get your dog past distractions without losing their mind, whether they are anxious or just super excited! We will give you the tools to continue this training at home to ensure your pup has great loose-leash skills and reliable recall!

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. 

Class will run for 3 weekly sessions, meeting on the same day and time of the week. This class starts on Saturday, June 28th from 1:00 – 1:50 pm.

This class will NOT meet on July 5th. The last class in this 3-session series will be on July 19th.
