Basic training classes for all ages. Social Tailwaggers. All rights reserved.

Teaching your dog the basics, i.e., sit, down, stay, come, and loose leash walking should be a fun and positive experience for both you and your dog.  This 7-week class is designed to teach these basic cues and then apply these cues to “life skills” such as:

  • meet and greet while on leash,
  • wait at the door,
  • settle on a mat,
  • loose leash walking skill
  • recall
  • leave it
  • impulse control
  • stay

All classes have between 3 and 5 dogs so you feel as if  you are receiving  “one-on-one” training.

This class is for dogs 5 months in age and older.

Prerequisites: Dogs must be people- and dog-friendly to attend class.  Not all dogs do well in a class environment.  If you are not sure whether your dog will do well in a class environment, please contact us before registering for the class.  All dogs must be fully vaccinated before attending class; vaccination records will be required before starting the class.
