Good Manners I Class is 8 weeks one hour each weekFirst class no dogs.The first class is for us to get you "clicker" savvy and discuss our 7 Tools for Success. Each owner will be given a Training Manual, a clicker and treat pouch.We will demonstrate the types of training aids we recommend you use which are the Comfort Trainer head halter by Miriam Fields Babineau and the Sense-ible (front connect) harness by Softtouch Concepts. They can be purchased from your instructor. Sizing and instruction can be done at week 2, so let your instructor know after class week one if you wish to have your dog sized for a particular training aid.Attention/look exercises will be explained and demonstrated as you will be working on these core exercises at home before you come into class week 2.The next several classes will include instruction on body blocking, targeting, teaching incompatible behaviors as well as discussion on the 3 Ds (duration, distance, duration). Stay, recall/come and heel and/or loose-leash walking will be explained, demonstrated and we will assist each owner with these behaviors.
