We also prepare you for the adolescent stage with some time spent on how to properly socialize and desensitize your puppy to different experiences, people, and other dogs.

Adult
Etiquette Classes

For dogs 9 months and up

$175.00 | Six (6) Week Session

Location:
UMDR Training Center
4107 White Tiger Lane

Tuesdays at 7:00pm

Saturdays at 11:30am

In these classes we advance the basic skills learned in Puppy Etiquette. Dogs build their ability to respond to their cues: "watch me", "sit", "down", "leave it", "stay" and "come" with additional distractions and at greater distances. Owners will also learn how to apply these skills to real world scenarios like building a "place" cue to help your dog settle when guests come to the door and improving your ability to maintain a loose leash walk or a "heel".
