the backyard 

Does your dog ‘listen’ in the house but not when there are distractions?

Do you know what to do when there ARE distraction?

In this class we assume that your dog can come, sit, walk on a leash, in quiet, without distractions.

AND THEN

we teach you how to work with your dog when you are:

  • away from home
  • off leash
  • in the presence of tempting alternatives and distractions

We teach you what to do in the real world and in real life situations–when guests come to the door, during picnics in the park, when a cat darts across the road, when off leash in parks or on walks

This class is offered in 4 week sessions on an occasional basis.  Please check the schedule for the next available one!

Come and have fun….we incorporate games, movement and laughter. Your dog learns that all those ‘distractions’ are just opportunities for them to show you that they DO know their stuff…you can’t fool THEM!
