Crazy Canine Workshop
This one hour workshop is designed for excitable dogs who may behave impulsively or struggle to focus. You can expect to learn exercises to regain your dogs attention when they are distracted, begin teaching them how to think through situations and control their impulses better, how to keep focus for longer periods of time and learn how to settle down when nothing specific is being asked of them. Each dog will receive direct feedback and coaching tailored to their needs.

Leash Manners
