What to Bring to Class

  What you will need to bring to class:

  • Copy of most recent vaccination records (unless already submitted w/ registration). 
  • DO NOT bring your dog to the first night of class.
  • A 6ft. nylon or leather leash.  No retractable leashes, please.  No-pull harnesses are also acceptable for class.
  • Flat or buckle collar (choke, pinch, or prong collars are not permitted in class).
  • A baggie full of tasty, soft treats. Cooked, cut up hot dogs, soft jerky-style treats, cheese cubes or leftover chicken make great rewards! (Hard biscuit-like treats are not favorable for class because they take too long to chew up )
  • Wear comfortable clothing including sneakers as we will sometimes be working outside and/or on the ground. Please dress according to the weather.
  • Children over 6 years old are welcome in class as long as they remain supervised and do not distract the class flow.
  • Children 12 yrs and older will be allowed to handle their dog in class as long as a parent or guardian attends class with them.
  • You will most likely have better results if you do not feed your dog before each class.
  • Giving your dog exercise and bathroom time before bringing them to each class is also helpful.
