recommended. Each owner will be given an Instruction Manual or Syllabus,
training clicker (use is optional), and treat pouch. We will
demonstrate the types of training aids we recommend you use including
the Freedom No-Pull Harness and the Comfort Trainer head halter. We can
measure your dog at any point week 2-8 to make sure the equipment you
choose will fit properly. Positive reinforcement and clicker training will be discussed. Weeks 2-8 will cover “click for calm”,
incompatible behaviors, attention work including name game and eye
contact, basic cues like sit, down, stand, touch, stay and recall. More
complex behaviors like mat work, loose leash walking, greeting behaviors
and impulse control behaviors like off, leave it and sit and stay for
dinner are trained.
