Simmer Down, Now!

“When we adopted our dog as a puppy four years ago, the shelter recommended Your Dog’s Friend (YDF) as a resource. I will be forever grateful for that advice. We have learned and benefited from–and had fun at–every single class at YDF.”

About this Class:

Do you wish your dog would just settle down already? Do you want to know how to encourage your dog to relax? The behaviors learned in this two-hour class will help encourage your dog to settle both at home, when you have guests or deliveries, and on the road, like at kids’ soccer games and outdoor cafes.

Learn skills like:

  • Go to Mat
  • Polite Greetings
  • Sit at Side
  • Loose-Leash Walking
  • Back Up

Prerequisite: Positive Basic Manners, Adolescent, or Puppy Kindergarten class or positive private training. Dogs in class must be friendly with other dogs and people.

Instructor:  Jackie Moyano (Behavior United)
Fee:  $50

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.
