     Focus Training Group Class

​

We know how important socialization and training are for our puppies, but what does proper socialization and

training look like? This class is designed to teach you and your puppy how to go about handling new social

situations and give you the foundations and skills to help you and your pup explore this complicated world.

You’ll be taught exactly how your dog learns and how best for you to communicate with your dog to give you

the greatest relationship possible! We follow strict fear free standards of training. We

don’t use physical coercion, but instead focus on behavioural modification through psychology. Trevor works

with a large number of dogs daily and understands that each dog is unique in their own way and requires

different training methods for modifying different behaviours. Each session places a huge emphasis on

socialization and increasing your dog’s stress threshold. In this class, we focus on teaching body language,

socializing with a group of dogs and how to approach training with your dog. Each class focuses on

disengagement, basic commands, paired cues, as well as recall cues. We’ll help you become your dog’s own

leader and trainer.

Focus Training Group Class: $160 + GST Four classes running from 7pm - 8pm on Wednesdays.

 

With the skills gained in these classes, you’ll be left feeling confident to tackle any challenges you and your pup may face in their journey through life.
