COURSES FOR PUPPIES
BECOME THE MOST INTERESTING HUMAN YOUR DOG HAS EVER MET!
Classes are 1 hour & meet once per week.
Classes will be held at Meg's small dog training studio in rural Hollidaysburg, PA. Email with location will be sent after enrollment.
I encourage all immediate family members to attend, but only if they do not become a distraction during class.
Absolutely no reactive or extremely fearful dogs. But general unruliness is welcome and expected.
If you have a reactive or extremely fearful dog, I have Private Sessions available.
Standard flat leashes only during class. No long training lines (until we get there) or Flexi leads.
Come with patience and the willingness to learn.
Treat pouches are highly encouraged but a pant pocket will do just fine. I also have treat pouches to loan, just ask.
Bring your own high value treats. We suggest something with either limited or one ingredient. You can use your dog’s food if they find it valuable to work for.
Stewart Freeze Dried Dog Treats are a fan favorite. They come in different quantities and varieties so don’t be afraid to mix and match to keep things interesting for your dog!

“Our dogs are a product of how we interact with them. Owning a dog should be a partnership. One must establish a healthy balance of expectations with guidance to ensure an enjoyable life together for both dog and human.”
