April 5, 2023Wag It Games - Smart Dog Tricks!
How Smart is YOUR dog? With a little coaching, probably pretty smart!
The Smart Dog Program used to be called Obstacle Skills. You will work with a variety of objects to help your dog build confidence, balance, body awareness, and obedience skills while learning to stay focused on you. You will practice a variety of training styles all based on a positive reward system.
This is a great pre-agility class. If you are thinking of trying dog agility this summer, this would be a great place to start.
We will offer several Novice tests. You can complete each test throughout the class. Play for fun - or earn a qualifying score towards a Smart Dog Title. No pressure.....just fun!
**No class - April 19**
Instructor - Jeremy Shaw
5 weeks - $140 (Each submitted qualifying score - $5 additional)

April 27, 2023Free Shaping is a fun training method. I use it mostly for more advanced tricks.
Free shaping teaches the dog to offer behaviors, which gets the dog thinking about how he can train the handler to give him treats! Done correctly, this can greatly increase the dog's confidence and improve the handler's training skills.
Come out for some fun activities for you and your dog!
