Did you know Iditarod mushers start socializing their pups at 2 weeks? Proper training and socialization, early and often, are keys to owning a Good Canine Citizen. Nevertheless, dogs of all ages benefit from training- learning how to focus, track, recall, sit, stay, walk calmly on leash and be comfortable with strangers. Research has shown that short 5-minute fun interactions with our canine companions lowers blood pressure, increases good brain hormones and strengthens the immune system of both the owner and dog! Quick training mentally and physically stimulates your dog while enhancing your leadership making your dog feel safe and secure. Pet owners will obtain valuable information they can use right away to improve their canine's behavior, including a Canine Communication Training 101 Guide. This presentation is intended for dog owners only, please do not bring your pets.
Purpose: Learn and observe quick and easy dog training techniques.
Facilitator: Joe De Simone (Guest Presenter - Canine Command)
