DOG OBEDIENCE TRAINING CLASSES
While dogs can’t speak our language, we can learn to speak theirs. Treats Unleashed training classes
are about more than just teaching your pet general commands. You’ll learn how to communicate
with your pet, be their trusted leader & prepare for life-long success in real-world environments.
Available in St. Louis only.
Form a strong, long-lasting bond with your new puppy by building on your communication skills. Through the Reinforcing Method, we start the foundation of name recognition, leash conditioning, sit, down & crate training. You’ll also build on socialization skills & learn how to successfully ignore unwanted behaviors. You’ll be amazed at how much your puppy wants to please you and your family! At the end of class, you and your puppy will be able to test for the S.T.A.R program of the AKC.
Learning fundamental skills are important for your dog’s development. In this class, you will learn how to effectively communicate with your pet & they will learn to associate natural behaviors to a command. The skills that every dog should know are included in this class, such as name recognition, sit, down, wait, come, place/climb, leave it & cooperative walking. You’ll participate in fun exercises that engage your dog’s mind. It’s the beginning to a better life between you & your dog!
This class is a continuation of your Beginning Obedience experience. We start with intensifying the skills they already know to improve distance and durations. You will work with your dog on the the skills of stay & come on a long line, leave it with greater distractions, and loose leash walking. This is a great class for any dog & owner pair that wants to strengthen their existing skillset.
