JumpStart- (8 Hour Group Class)Group Class

Two weeks to get on track, or just have fun!

It's never too early, or too late, to start working with your dog. JumpStart is just that - a way to advance your relationship with your dog through education and hands-on activities. In fact, many of our clients say that this program changed the relationship with their dog literally overnight!

Within two weeks, this program will teach you the basics of canine psychology and behaviour, basic obedience and we'll help work through your specific issues and challenges. This group class environment supports and encourages you to see the potential your dog has to be a companion that you can take anywhere.

 

Ally & Shea

Here's how it works.

This program starts with a 2 hour seminar which sets the foundation for understanding your dog, why they behave the way they do, and how we may unknowingly contribute to their behaviour.

A few days later, we start our series of four 1.5 hour hands on sessions with your dog, putting into action the lessons learned at the seminar.

You complete homework assignments between each class and each class is designed to progressively build upon the skills you have learned in previous classes. New habits begin to form almost immediately with this program which really helps you develop the pet you have always wanted.

This class is an intense 8 hour program condensed into 2 weeks, designed to give you maximum benefit in the shortest amount of time.
