Adolescent and Adult Dog 101 (Novice) *Fall '24 registration is closed. Stay tuned for a winter or spring section.
Location: Community Room of the Town Offices at Whitefield, 56 Littleton Rd. Whitefield, NH
Dates: Fridays, 7:15-8:00 Sept 20 & 27, and Oct 4, 11, 18. (October 25th will be the makeup if class needs to be canceled.)
This 5-week class is intended for dogs over 6 months of age, still in the early stages of learning, without a history of aggressive or highly reactive behavior. Each day of this 5-week course we will prioritize 3 specific behaviors / cues and begin to add distance, duration, and distraction to solidify those behaviors and proof them in the real world. Curriculum will cover sit, down, release cues, wait, leave-it, coming when called, place, leash manners, managing challenging behaviors, and more. There are no interactive play sessions during this class, but exposure to other dogs in a controlled environment is of great value in your dog’s training.
Don’t forget to bring high value treats for your pup, and a current vaccination record! All family members are invited (and encouraged) to attend. You will receive both a text message and a welcome email about a week before class begins with all the information needed for you to be prepared.
There are no credits or refunds for missed sessions. An email will be sent that summarizes the skills we covered. If a session is canceled by North Star, a makeup class will be offered.
