Through structured training, we'll guide you and your canine companion to surpass expectations with the removal of treats, ensuring obedience even without immediate rewards. Our sessions emphasize focus in group settings, cultivating your dog's ability to maintain attention amidst distractions. From mastering the perfect heel to practicing a reliable 'leave it' command, we'll equip you with the tools for success in any environment. While preparation for therapy dog/buddy's pals/cgc testing is offered, participation is optional, allowing you to explore this rewarding path at your own pace.

R.E.S.C.U.E. Reactive. Education. Support. Confidence.  Understanding. Energy. 

This class is for dogs that react to people and other dogs by barking, lunging, shutting down and are distressed. Having a dog that is on constant alert and anxious is hard on the owners and the dog. In this class, we will focus on better understanding of your dog's reactivity, how to communication with your dog and we will teach coping skills and desensitizing your dog with positive reinforcement.

Class does not address resource guarding and may not be suitable if that is your main problem.
