Does your dog need a little help polishing their manners? Whether you’re working through common behaviour challenges or looking to build a stronger foundation for everyday life, this class focuses on the practical skills that help dogs become confident, polite companions. This class combines problem-solving strategies with real-life manners, including focus, impulse control, polite greetings, and appropriate social skills.
