Description: Want to turn your neighborhood walk into a joy instead of a pain? This 3-week workshop will give you the tools to help your dog learn to stop pulling and walk nicely on leash. You’ll learn which techniques are best for your particular dog’s profile and you’ll get plenty of practice on each technique during class.
We’ll cover equipment choices and give you a specific recommendation for your dog. We’ll utilize positive training methods to teach your dog to walk nicely on leash. Great leash walking isn’t something that is completed in just 3 weeks. But this workshop will give you a great start and arm you with the techniques to continue improving with every walk you take. Soon the members of your family will be arguing over who GETS to walk the dog, rather than who HAS to walk the dog!
