Group Classes for Puppies, Obedience and Reactivity
Practice where you need it, in a real world but controlled setting with distraction.
Puppy Classes
Your puppy will need its first round of vaccines (not the 2nd) and be 5 months or younger.
The ideal setting for your pup to develop key skills and socialize. In addition to learning basic commands, your puppy will have the chance to interact with other pups in a fun and positive way—helping both you and your dog understand what good play looks like.
We create an enriching environment for young dogs, ensuring they get what they need to grow into confident, well-behaved adults. We cover:
- Socialization, what is the right amount, too much or not enough?
- Reactivity prevention
- Focus on handler from triggers in the environment
- Loose leash walking
- Building proprioception and confidence by interacting with various types of surfaces (Like Deedee to the right here on the skateboard)
- Handling, nail cutting, tooth brushing (yes, it’s worth it), etc.
- Calm in all environments
- We answer ANY questions you have and your class comes with a FREE 15 PAGE E-BOOK: The Ultimate Puppy Guide as a reference!
Basic Obedience 1
Your dog will need their full vaccinations.
Basic Training isn’t just about teaching your dog commands—it is the PRIMARY way to bond with them and help them understand what you expect. Whether you’re working with a first-time adult dog or building on the foundations of puppy training, a basic obedience group class is the perfect fit. We cover:
- Focus on YOU, the handler
- Automatic check-in when distraction happens in the environment (and it will!)
- Essential commands: sit, down, stand, spin, turn, stay, come.
- Set yourself and your dog up for success in new environments
- Stationing (stay in one place for length of time), tricks (mentally stimulating and fun to show off!) and loose leash walking
- Most importantly: CALM in any environment. Yes, with practice this is possible!
We welcome reactive dogs and provide strategies to help improve your walks and behavior management. Not sure if your dog is ready? Reach out, and we’ll be happy to help!
Reactivity
Your dog will need their full vaccinations.
Designed to help dogs who struggle with reactivity towards other dogs, people, or specific outdoor situations. Whether your dog barks, lunges, or shows signs of fear or aggression, this class provides a supportive environment to work through these behaviours. We cover:
- Condition your dog to build a different response to the trigger through real-world practice.
- Calmness in all environments: the key to reducing reactivity.
- Trained behaviours to get your dog to do INSTEAD of react
- Loose leash walking and recall near other dogs
