Basic Control

 

This is the first class new dogs and handlers must do.

Our Basic Control class focuses on teaching you and your dog the foundations of everyday manners and teamwork. You’ll work on essential skills such as sit, down, stay, recall, loose-lead walking, and self-control in a group setting. Handlers also learn how to use cues, rewards, and release markers consistently. This class builds confidence and connection, giving you and your dog the skills to progress into more advanced training.

 

At the end of the course a certificate is awarded as long as attendance has been Maintained.
