Looking for a group class?
Join in the fun and learn why everything runs on reinforcement!

Reinforcement-based training is more than having 'cookies' for your dog. Step into the science of why behavior works, learn new skills and have a lot of fun along the way.

Both these classes require pre-registration and since the class size is small, sign up soon.

And we're off!

The World Walking class had its first meeting yesterday, and everyone had a great time learning about leashes, harnesses, and handling techniques. During this initial class, participants not only learned how to safely handle longlines, but they also practiced their newly acquired skills with Hannah.

You might be curious why Hannah is walking the 'Runway' with two leads. My leash serves as a safety line, which allows students to practice their handling skills while focusing on both the physical manipulation of the lead and their observations of the dog. This way, they don't have to worry about what might happen if they accidentally drop the leash!

Between now and next class, students can practice skills with their own dogs. Class 2 will feature the class coming together with all learners - canine and human. The second class will feature practicing these skills + adding in the distraction of other teams in class without adding on all the distractions of a full World Walk.
It's all about small steps to greater success.

Ready? Set. Go!

Puppy HeadStart begins in just over a week - September 13 at 9 am.

Don't let their small size and young age fool you. Unlike your computer, your puppy's brain never turns off - they are either experimenting, practicing, or installing updates - continually!

Puppies have a remarkable ability to learn quickly at a rate that is unmatched at any other time in their lives.
These associations develop rapidly through physical interactions with the world around them, mental problem-solving, and attention to how they emotionally feel about these experiences.

In this class, you will learn not only how to teach your puppy, but also develop skills for managing your puppy's learning experiences, and understand how to set your puppy up for success emotionally and physically.

You can find out more details about class here:

My youngest, Alan, demonstrated right from day one at home that he was ready to tackle all manner of challenges - a master problem-solver at the young age of 8 weeks.
