Walking Your Well-Mannered Dog,
Tue, Aug 5, 2008 - 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM |
 |
Limited to 5 dog/handler teams. This class is outdoors and may be rescheduled in the event of bad weather. (NOTE: This is a one-day 2.5 hour class for walking skills only) Walking your dog on a loose lead is what we all strive for, right? No pulling, sniffing, dragging behind or cutting in front of you? But did you know that dogs have to be taught to hold a position next to you while walking? Pulling them back, holding them back, none of it works. This is a skill you both need to learn and practice. First we'll make sure you are using the proper equipment (available here to try out), then we get moving. Learn how to make your walks enjoyable for both of you! You will need to bring or purchase a 4' leash with a medium clip. Our preference is leather, as it gets nice and soft the more you use it. Handlers with nylon leads and heavy clips will be asked to change to a leash that is more comfortable for walking. No aggressive dogs, please. |

The Well-Mannered Puppy Jump-Start!,
Sat, Aug 9, 2008 - 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM |
|
(NOTE: This is a one-day, 3-hour Puppy Jump Start) Limited to 5 puppy teams -- 8 - 16 weeks of age. Puppies need a great head-start to become great dogs! Socialization in a safe, controlled environment is crucial in helping your puppy acclimate to the world around him. Games for greeting politely, coming when called, appropriate play with other pups. We'll help you with housetraining and crate training, handling your puppy and teach you both how to connect with one another. Learn how to set yourselves and your puppies up for a lifetime of success! Pups must have at least 2 sets of vaccinations and have been in your home for at least 1 week. |

| Directions are included in the confirmation e-mail sent to you after you register. |
| Rates: |
| The fee for current classes and seminars is $90.00. |
| Puppy Jump-Start limited to 5 puppy/handler teams. |
| Well-Mannered Dog: Household Manners is limited to 4. |
| Walking Your Well-Mannered Dog class is limited to 5. |
| Payment in full is required to hold a place in class. |
| Again, there are no makeups or credits available for these classes due to our limits on the number of students I take. Please check all of your class dates to be sure you can attend. |
| Vaccinations: |
| Shot records are required at least 7 days prior to class start date. |
| All Dogs: Please have your dog’s shot records with you on the first day of class or mail them to us prior to the start of class. |
| Puppies: Must have their second series of vaccines and if your vet agrees, we would prefer that your puppy has a Bordetella vaccine prior to class -- the Bordetella vaccine is optional and the decision is up to your vet. Some vets like to give the Bordatella vaccine to pups AFTER 16 weeks of age. If your puppy has not had the second series of shots, you may still come to class without your puppy. As soon as your puppy receives the second series of shots, you may bring your puppy to class. |
| Dogs over 5 months: Must have complete vaccination records at least 1 week prior to the first day of class. |
| Having current vaccinations for your dog will help protect your dog but does not guarantee immunity from all illnesses s/he may encounter. |
| I recommend the Bordatella vaccine as well. Not all vets give this automatically, so you must ask for it specifically. |
