barking or digging. We'll show you how to teach your dog good manners and basic

Growl Class
Whether your dog is reactive, fearful, aggressive, or super-duper friendly, this
is the class for you. Or, if you have a dog that for no reason keeps getting attacked,
this class can prevent that from continuing. These classes are designed to give the
owner's the tools that they need to work with your dog. Your dog may not leave this
class 'cured' but you will leave more confident and educated knowing how to read your
dog and how to help him to become a good citizen. This intense and always positive
class will give you a lot of daily homework - the more often you can train, the quicker
your problems will go away.
The main goal of this class is to have all dogs work through the exercises each week,
WITHOUT EVER AGGRESSING. All dogs will wear haltis, and muzzles if needed - meaning that
this class is a safe place for your dog to work on his skills and gain more confidence.
Dogs will enjoy coming to this class and re-learning the social skills that they are
lacking.
After week six, we take all of our classroom lessons out into the real world. We then get to practise walking as a pack, and walking past strange dogs.
This class will give you the confidence to enjoy your dog in public, again.
Maximum class size is 6 dogs; minimum class size is 4 dogs.
Enrollment is $250.00. The classes meet for one hour per week for 8 weeks(please see time schedule below).
