This class is for the dog that gets vocal when greeting people or dogs on leash. It is for the dog that lunges, pulls on leash, and growls or barks uncontrollably during walks.
Class Goals:
The focus of this class is to help owners teach their dogs to greet people and other dogs calmly. Dogs will learn that self-control will get them the attention they desire. Dogs learn to walk on a loose leash, calmly greet a person, and calmly pass by another dog. Problem-behavior trouble-shooting and active, participatory classes. Your dog should have already taken a basic manners class of some type where sit, down, come were taught. If you are not sure this is the correct class for your dog, please consider an in-home behavioral consultation.
