BEGINNERS
Beginners is our first 6 week class and includes puppies and young dogs. Focus on attention and socialization are introduced. Basic obedience exercises such as sit, down, stay, come when called and how to walk on a leash are taught. These basic exercises teach the dogs to be well mannered pets that are welcome in the community.

Focusing on attention continues as well as the recall, sit and down stays, figure 8, stand for examination and heeling on and off leash.
