Family Dog Training: Basics

This class is all about building a relationship with your dog and making sure your dog has the skills to be a valued member of your family. Polite greeting, coming when called, and walking on leash without pulling are only some of the behaviors taught. Each week a Tip for Canine Wellness is presented, covering such topics as nutrition, exercise, and fitness.

Dogs 20 weeks and older are welcome !
