Do you just need to do some “brush up” before going into the confirmation ring?

Then this is a clinic for you.

Loose Leash Walking

Still dragging behind that dog of yours?

Does your dog “finally settle into a walk” when you are getting ready to return home?

Does it take 15-20 minutes of walking before your dog “stops pulling most of the time?”

Well learn how to re-teach your dog to really walk nice on a leash.

For this class you might want to consider a head halter or “no pull” harness – habits are often hard to retrain.

Pulling on a leash develops the “message” that pulling gets the “walk.”
