What to expect: STEP ONE focuses on attention, on and off leash and impulse control
issues. Using Positive Reinforcement, motivation and benevolent leadership.
Covers: Sit/down/stand stays to teach dogs how to settle, and recalls away from
distractions. Working on and off leash through everyday life challenges; from greeting
people politely with four on the floor, to curbing bad habits of chasing vehicles,
skateboards and bikes included. We will also cover appropriate social skills when meeting
other dogs.
Result: Your dog will be eager to follow your benevolent lead whether at home or out on
the trails.

What to bring: Your dog (wearing a plain buckle collar), You (wearing comfortable
outdoor clothing), 6 foot plain leash, walking harness if you use one, scrumptious small
soft dog treats that your dog will jump hoops for, special toy that your dog goes googly
eyed over, and a soft mat.
* Please leave your dog in your vehicle when you first arrive (with leash attached if it is
safe to do so). Bring your gear (treats, toys and mat) to the meeting area.
