Puppy Class for Puppies 3 to 6 Months of Age.
(large breeds 3 to 5 months of age).

This class is designed to expose your puppy to many new and different situations. Socialization plays an important role in having a well mannered adult dog - one which will accept new experiences without fear. The training is done at the puppy's mental level.

Lessons include:

• walking on a loose lead
• sitting when you stop
• coming when called
• and a very modified sit and down stay
• We also introduce"Door Practice" - teaching a pup they cannot go out of a door without your permission
• and whistle training - teaching the puppy to come to you on a whistle tone if they cannot hear your voice.

This class also will have a short talk on housebreaking, chewing, nutrition, household grooming, etc.

This is a 6 week class and you will meet for one hour.

Basic Beginners Class for Dogs close to 6 Months of Age

Now that your dog is more mentally mature, your lessons will be more structured. At the end of the 8 week class, you can expect your dog to:

• walk at your side - without pulling
• to sit when you stop
• and to come when called.

The sit-stay and down-stay will mean just that. We also introduce "Door Practice" - teaching a dog they cannot go out of a door without your permission and whistle training - teaching the dog to come to you on a whistle tone if they cannot hear your voice.

This class is an 8 week course and meets once a week.
The fee is $80.00 and includes a collar and leash.
