Surviving puppyhood / Enrichment

(ages 9 weeks to 18 weeks) this is a 6 week class (  dogs come to all 6 classes )
Puppies will learn important life skills ( sit, down, come, leave it, drop it, go to your bed and much more in addition to crucial social skills with other puppies and people in a proper and safe environment.

Typically between  week 3-6 we will introduce some of our enrichment equipment.  Enrichment is designed to expose pups to a variety of things such as new textures, sounds and movement that sometimes worry or scare dogs.  It will boost their confidence while burning lots of mental and physical energy.

Our puppy enrichment consists of different stations that will work on varies skills such as:

-Balance ,coordination, confidence

The 10-step Canine Good Citizen test is a non-competitive test for all dogs, including purebreds and mixed breeds. The CGC award is a prerequisite for many therapy dog groups.

Therapy Dog Prep Class  TBA

Age requirement: 1 yr+ , dog should have a intermediate level of obedience and should be comfortable working around other dogs.

This will be a 5 week Prep Class.  First class- Orientation ( no dogs )

Before getting started, you should know what we are looking for in a TDI Dog:

A Therapy Dog is born, not made. Yes, one can teach a dog mannerly behavior, but one cannot change a dog’s inherent temperament. When a dog is put under stress, poor or marginal temperament will surface.

Therefore: What are we looking for?

A Therapy Dog must have an outstanding temperament. This means that the dog should be outgoing and friendly to all people; men, women, and children. The dog should be tolerant of other dogs (of both genders) and non-aggressive toward other pets. Before you consider having your dog evaluated, you should ask yourself if your dog has these qualities.

****************************************************************************************

This class is for dogs and owners that would like to enhance their relationship while having fun.  Tricks are a  great way to stimulate your dogs mind and entertain a crowd.

You can now earn your dogs – AKC Trick Dog Title.  Title testing will be held on last class.
