Canine Good Citizen (CGC) class incl test .The CGC Program is a great obedience foundation for all dogs, designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. The Canine Good Citizen Program is a two-part program that stresses responsible pet ownership for owners and basic good manners for dogs. In this class we will work on the 10-step requirements to pass the CGC test. All dogs who pass the 10-step CGC test may receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club. The 10 test items for the CGC test
Advanced Canine Good Citizen (CGCA) incl. Test
In this class we will work on the 10-step requirements to pass the CGCA test. All dogs who pass the 10-step CGCA test may receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club.
The 10 - test items for the CGCA title Requirements: All dogs are allowed to attend class (except reactive dogs though). However, only dogs with a CGC title are eligible to take the Advanced Canine Good Citizen (CGCA) test. Intro to Rally
Rally is a fun dog sport in which the dog and handler complete a course at their own pace through a course of designated stations (10 - 20, depending on the level). Each of these stations has a sign providing instructions regarding the next skill that is to be performed. This Intro Class will focus on the Novice signs and the importance of encouragement and teamwork. All dogs are welcome, no matter their age or breed.
Requirement: No reactive dogs allowed! If your dog is reactive, consider private sessions instead to work on that specific issue. Advance Rally ObedienceIn this 6 week class you will learn and practice both the intermediate as well as the advanced signs. Furthermore, we will focus on more precision in positioning, stronger verbal cues and more subtle hand signals and body cues, including more off leash work ( if possible).
Please note, that this class is only for teams that already has done the Intro to Rally class or have some prior experience with Rally Obedience |
Creative Movement Class IThis fun class is a great foundation class for Rally, Rally-FrEe or Freestyle dancing. We will work on transitional moves, such as spins, circle around, through legs with focus on precision in positioning and transferal of behaviors to verbal cues. This is a more technical class utilizing luring, shaping and target training.
Requirement: Must already have basic walking skills, and have a desire to take training beyond sit, down and stay. Movement Puzzles - NEW CLASS
This class focuses on fitness training, in which your dog will be in charge and move independently through a sequence of obstacles utilizing the two bowl game. This class is great for fitness training, body awareness, confidence building and so much more. Join me for this fun 4 week class.
Requirement: No dog-aggressive dogs can attend as the participating dogs will have periods of time working off leash. Tricks classThis class is set up similar to the CGC class, where we will practice various tricks throughout the class, and then have the opportunity to test for AKC trick titles on week 7. We will try a couple of tricks each class, and you will be able to choose which ones you like best for the test. If you have any requested tricks, let me know, otherwise we will be going off of the lists of tricks from AKC.
Fun with Shaping
This is a class designed to help your dog ‘build their brain’, by making them think and come up with the behaviors we are wanting. This is another way of training, different from luring behaviors. We will shape with various objects, and you will get to choose which behavior you are rewarding your dog for (I will give suggestions, but you will choose).
Shaping can be a great way to teach some difficult behaviors, expand your animal’s capabilities and build confidence, while also building your handler and communication skills. Balance, Awareness and Movement (BAM)In this 4 weeks class, we will focus on balance, body awareness and movement. This class is a fantastic foundation class for any young adolescent dog as well as any dog who needs a boost in confidence. We will work on rear-end awareness, body awareness, movement and handler focus by using ladders, platforms, discs, balance beams and much more - all great foundation skills needed for any dog!
Intro to nose workIn this 4 weeks class, we will focus on building drive and commitment. A fun intro class to get started on Nose work and a great way to mentally exhaust your dog.
Mix Match
This Mix Match class will focus on a different dog activity in each session. Topics will range from Rally, Nose work, Balance and Conditioning work, Creative Movements, Tricks and Enrichment Puzzles to Movement Puzzles.
This class is a chance for the handler to try some new activities beyond basic manners and is suitable for any dog, no matter age, breed or activity level. Come and try something new and have a fun time with your dog. Note: No reactive dogs allowed. If your dog is reactive, consider private sessions instead to help work with your dog on this specific issue. |
