Level 1: Foundation
Got a new dog or looking to improve your current dog's behavior? Our Level 1: Foundation class is designed to teach you and your dog the essential skills needed to navigate life—whether in the big city or anywhere!
Using positive reinforcement, this course helps you build and maintain skills that make life with your dog easier and more enjoyable. You'll learn key cues like sit and down, along with techniques to improve leash walking, communication, recall, and your dog's ability to settle.
By strengthening these foundation behaviors, you'll establish clear communication, enhance your dog's responsiveness, and build a stronger, more connected bond.
