    Walk with me- Loose Leash Walking

    Does your dog pull on leash when you are out for a walk? Would you like the pulling to stop, so you can enjoy your walk? If your dog is constantly pulling, it will make your walk unenjoyable and can be unhealthy for your dog. When your dog pulls on leash it is self rewarding, meaning, when they pull it gets them where they want to go and quickly. Our main focus of this 4 week course is to teach your dog to walk nicely on a loose leash and not pull you. During this course we will be working both inside and outside. You will need to bring a leash,collar/harness, and treats!

    Duration: 4 weeks/ 45 minutes each week

  • Canine Communication
