Additional Class Information: Owner education is provided on positive solutions to problem puppy behavior (examples: play biting, jumping, house training, leadership, learn what motivates puppies, and much more). Attention, eye contact and name recognition form the base for teaching behaviors such as sit, come, stand, down (from a sit and from a stand), stay (both sit and down stay), walk on a loose leash, and heel. In class we use a "Reward Mark" in place of using a "Clicker". Training begins by using hand signals first, once puppy fully understands the hand signal and owners are standing in a normal upright position, verbal cues are then added. This enables owners to give their verbal cues once, versus repeat cues that the puppy would learn to ignore. We teach owners to be able to get and maintain their puppy's attention with distractions. Owners are taught how to use rewards (treats, toys, play, and praise) properly to motivate their puppy. The class Puppy play and interaction is encouraged in the Junior Puppy classes to develop positive experiences and good communication skills. No people or dog aggressive puppies are allowed in puppy group classes. Puppies found to have aggression issues (either dog or people) will be pulled from the Jr. Puppy Class and additional training options will be referred.
