Cautious Canines, Level 1 (Orientation followed by 7 weeks of class)

This class is specifically designed for the dog that is too shy or fearful to do well in a traditional group class. If your dog startles easily, has trouble meeting new people (or dogs) at or away from home, avoids strangers or has difficulty concentrating on you when in a new environment then this class may be for you.

The Cautious Canine Class has a small student-to-trainer ratio (no more than 3 dogs per trainer) to assure individualized attention. Class will focus on teaching techniques to identify what triggers your dog’s fear and how to develop a plan to reduce your dog’s stress and bolster her confidence. This class will not be able to accommodate dogs with a history of biting or trying to bite people who stay at a reasonable distance. Dogs must be at least 4 months old to participate.
