Group training is included for your first year with us. After that, there’s a yearly fee. The only stipulation is that clients must first train in one of our other programs before being graduated.
Group classes expose your dog to the real world, with all its distractions. Because it’s held outside with other dogs and owners involved, your pet will learn how to obey even if they’re in a brand-new environment.
Group training is designed to give our clients the opportunity to continue their dog’s training and proof skills with the distraction of other people and dogs. In general, we provide these benefits at group training:
- Socialize dogs with people in the manner of a “”Good Citizen””
- Opportunity for clients to be social with other dog owners
- Drills to proof elements of training in a distracting environment
- Drills that help clients increase their dog’s level of attention and performance
- Drills to build confidence in all dogs, especially helpful for fearful dogs
- Drills to reform aggressive dogs
- Drills to help dogs can become neutral in their response to other people and dogs.
- Trainers point out common failing points and offer tips for success when dogs are in social situations
- Drills and tips that enable clients to prepare for the Canine Good Citizen test and move into therapy work
- Tips on tricks and games to play
- Tips on things to work on at home during the week
- Access to trainers for clients get face to face advice on any training concerns
