Focus, Attention & Self-Control

Work as a team - even in distracting environments

Description

We will work on focus, attention, and self-control through exercises and games that will pay dividends in all of your other training during this course.

  • Has your dog had limited socialization and now they get overly excited when they see people or other dogs?  
  • Is your dog easily distracted - Is he more interested in other dogs or people than in working with you?
  • Does your dog only work if he sees cookies in your hand or a treat bag strapped to your waist?
  • Does your dog need to improve his self-control?

If the answer to these questions is “Yes,” then this class is for you!  

You will learn techniques to guide your dog towards better choices and methods to reinforce focus and impulse control. Your dog will increase their ability to focus in the face of distractions and become a happier and more motivated companion in your time together. 

Prerequisites

Age of Dog:  5 months and older
