Basic Obedience

$100 for the entire 7 week course   

 

Basic Obedience Group Class is a 7-week course covering manners all good dogs need to know. These skills include walking on a loose leash, sit, down, sit-stay, down-stay, come, heel, watch, and release commands. The first class is an orientation class going over chewing, digging, jumping, and nipping as well as instruction on how dogs learn. The Group Class environment is preferred  when a dog is learning basic manners because it offers unique distractions and situations with humans and other dogs to help generalize your dog’s learning and enhance socialization skills. Using the skills your dog develops in class, you can solve simple issue such as being too rough around the kids, jumping up on guests, and other dog behaviors that can make daily life unpleasant. Basic Obedience group classes are for dogs 15 weeks to 10 years of age and up that are current on vaccines and all members of the family that are 8 years of age or older are encouraged to come to class!
