Classes are structured to be rewarding, safe and comfortable for everyone. So, please bring to every class…

​

• Fresh water and a water bowl

• Plenty of training treats of both high value and lower value to your dog

• Paper towels and poopie bags (Just in case!)

• A mat, towel or similar item that your dog will lay on and get to know as his/her “place”

• A six-foot (non-retractable) lead

• A collar/harness 

  • Comfort harnesses are preferred. Front clip harnesses are strongly recommended. [Back clip harnesses are not effective at teaching a dog not to pull on the leash.] We will learn gentle walking control techniques and manners.

  • If walking on a collar, we recommend a "Martingale." You will learn how to safely and comfortably use it.

  • Absolutely NO choke or electronic collars are permitted. We train, we do not want to restrain!

• Paper and Pen. We discuss a great deal of important information that you will want to remember and incorporate into your training regimen.

• Record of current inoculations and county license [Bring to the first class only- but it is a good idea to have a picture of them on your phone, so they are always with you. Some facilities will require them prior to entry.]
