COVID-19 Policies

While Your Dog’s Friend is continuing to offer many classes online, the Training Center is now open, and we are beginning to offer very limited in-person classes.

Our updated COVID-19 policies include:

  • Reduced class sizes for classes inside the Training Center
  • One family member per dog for any in-person class
  • Sanitizing high-touch areas between classes
  • Please exit the Training Center promptly upon class completion.
  • In order to attend in-person class, human participants must:
    • Wear a mask
    • Maintain a distance of at least 6 feet from other individuals before, during, and after class
    • Sanitize their hands upon entering the Training Center and after touching their face, sneezing or coughing while in class
    • Not attend class if they have COVID-19 or any symptoms of COVID-19, or if in the past 14 days they have been exposed to someone who has COVID-19
    • Notify their instructor or the training coordinator if they, or someone who lives in their house, develops COVID-19 while enrolled in class (or within 2 days of attending Puppy Party)

Does your dog think twice when you call? Are distractions getting in the way of a rock-solid recall? Spend four game-packed sessions learning how to change that response and help your dog understand that coming to you is the best thing in the world.
