Basic Dog Manners:
Evening Class
In this class, using positive reinforcement methods based on current learning theory and behavior modification techniques, we will teach YOU to teach the dog to respond to your commands of: Come, Sit (and Stay), Down (and Stay), and Heel. Dogs of all ages and sizes are welcome, but the dog must be at least 14 weeks old and have had at least 2 of 4 puppy vaccinations. Participants in all classes must show current veterinary vaccination at first night’s orientation. Positive reinforcement methods only; we will learn to use a clicker. Students learn to use their clicker to show dogs the desired behavior and give the immediate rewards. A clicker, hot dogs, lots of praise and a dog that you love is all you really need for class. Dogs attend ALL five classes. Graduation with judges, prizes and proud trainers and graduates.

Canine Good Citizen:
Training Workshop & CGC Test
(Ages: 16 yrs to Adult)
Heard about the new American Kennel Club award for mixed breeds, pure breds, and all well-behaved dogs? Your dog wants to be a Good Citizen! The Canine Good Citizen training will teach you why and how to become an AKC Canine Good Citizen. You and your canine companion will learn techniques for training (loose lead walking, not jumping up, come, sit-stay, down-stay), hints for passing the AKC CGC test, goals to be set for you and your dog and how to get and keep the dog’s attention on you. We will practice ten obedience tasks of the AKC CGC test in class, and we will take the CGC test in class, and we will take the CGC test as our graduation exercise. All interested in nonaggressive dogs welcome - you do not need to have completed the basic dog manners course, but dogs should know the commands: sit, down, come and have mastered loose lead walking.
(Note: After you register for this class, please e mail instructor at saf@abrohamneal.com for supply list and for class orientation and reading assignments. All supplies are available at Dog Krazy.)
