BASIC GOOD MANNERS for pups 16+ weeks!
Basic Good Manners is where our journey starts towards a well trained dog.
BASIC GOOD MANNERS
Do you want a really well trained dog that listens in spite of distractions? Comes when called? Stays down when company arrives and walks politely on leash?
This class will give you the skills and the support to accomplish all this and more. Build a great relationship with your dog! This is all about a cooperative partnership. Fun, fair and consistent guidance helps to take the "How do I stop my dog from . . . ? To "What a Good Dog!"

Testimonials
Thanks for the tip you gave on diverting Harry's attention from the cars. Now I'm even able to distract him from a school bus with the command - buses were one of his really big triggers. My arm isn't so stressed from all the sudden lunges.
Very much appreciated. I'm almost looking forward to spring when all the boats on trailers reappear. We'll be in much better shape to deal with them hopefully! Deb T and Harry the Border Collie.
