Monday evenings, 7:45pm-8:45pm

Your dog has learned a foundation, but hasn't learned to respond when he's distracted, in new environments, or if he can't see a treat. Beyond the Basics helps you and your dog learn the next steps of proofing in all sorts of situations, and develop good attention skills. This class will continue to work on sit and down, recalls, stay and loose-leash walking with the addition of increasingly difficult distractions while helping you and your dog be successful.
