Learn How to Teach Your Dogs From Their Viewpoint

THURSDAYS, AUG. 3 – 31, 12:30 P.M.

Keystone Room

Understanding how dogs learn best will enable you to teach them many behaviors. This is much more fun for both you and your dog. Learn how to teach your dog to respond to basic commands for walk, sit, down, etc., as well as how the dog can take responsibility for their basic manners. “Manners” in our context means your dog knows what to do with no specific command from you (e.g. stopping at a curb when you stop or remaining by your side and not jumping when you stop to talk to someone). Contact Carole Artim caroleartim@gmail.com or Mike Artim at michaelartim@gmail.com for more information and a training class application.
