As an adolescent, your pup is in tune with all that is going on in the world around him. He wants it all and he wants it now! In this class we will focus his attention on you, fine-tune his basic obedience and improve his impulse control using positive reinforcement and rewards. Your pup will learn to wait for toys, greet people and dogs appropriately, and remain calm when there is excitement.
To be successful in Teen Puppy, your pup should have attended a puppy class or had puppy obedience training in your home. You will reinforce your pup for what he knows and give him new skills that he needs as an adolescent. Advanced skills include STAY and COME in the classroom, plus your puppy learns to tolerate noises, odd surfaces, and handling for a veterinary exam.
This 4-week class is limited to 4 teens and their people. Each week we will meet at Front Range Natural Pet at 1125 West Drake Road, Fort Collins. The course tuition is $140.00 payable at registration.
This small group class is age appropriate for your adolescent dogs 6 months to 9 months.
Pups must 1) have lived with you for 2 weeks prior to the start of class and 2) be fully inoculated at least 14 days prior to the start of class.
