demos on issues like mouthing &

of the pack." |
Obedience
with Distractions (Level II)
This
class is part two of our beginners
obedience curriculum. The objective
of this class is to take the commands
learned in any beginners obedience
class and bring them to a high level
of consistency.
The
main goals are for your dog to:
1. Perform long series of commands
for praise and intermittent treats
2. Perform commands like sit stay
in spite of sound, object, motion
and doggie distractions and
3. Perform commands from greater distances
for longer periods of time and with
less and less leash control. |
Agility
Obedience (Level I & II Class)
This
is a fun-filled active, intensive class
combining traditional obedience with
distractions and agility training. |
Doggie
Obstacle Course I & II
Doggie
Obstacle I teaches your dog to execute
a variety of obstacles such as bar
jumps, tunnels and weave poles. It
focuses on running courses with less
and less leash control.
Doggie Obstacle II runs more advanced
courses while focusing on goals such
as obstacle discrimination, directional
control, speed and handler's control.
It also plays our version of agility
games such as Gambler and Snooker. |
Canine
Good Citizen Test Course (A Level
3 Class)
Your
dog can earn his CGC from the American
Kennel Club by passing a series of ten
behavior testing situations. Accepting
a friendly stranger, sitting politely
for petting, appearance and grooming,
out for a walk, walking through a crowd,
sit and down on command/staying in place,
coming when called, reaction to another
dog, reaction to distractions, supervised
separation. |
Ultimate
Obedience (Level III)
The
main goal of this class is to continue
to refine your dog's obedience and listening
skills by highlighting and intensifying
different exercises from Obedience with
Distractions . It also reintroduces
concepts like dominance and attention
exercises in a more detailed advanced
way. It teaches some new commands and
offers additional focus on obedience
and behavior modification exercises
that are requested by students currently
taking the class. |
Improvisational
Obedience (Level III)
This is a wonderful class designed for
our Happy Dog Club members as well as
for our other students who enjoy actively
taking classes throughout the year.
It offers a cross between obedience
and agility training and each week we
essentially "improvise" on
what exercises we as a group have our
dogs perform. |
Level
2/3 Agility Combo Class
This
course combines concepts from Obedience
With Distractions, Ultimate Obedience
and Agility to provide students of all
educational levels the chance to have
their dogs learn and be influenced by
one another. Newer students learn quicker
by having more experienced dogs in the
class to model from and the advanced
dogs are challenged by the distractions
of newcomers! |
