Bring a hungry, or mildly hungry, dog. Avoid feeding your dog the meal that falls directly before class. Ideally, your pup will have not eaten for at least 6 hours before their class.
Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Our floors are concrete and we want you to be comfortable moving around and working with your dog.
Bring a variety of small training treats that your dog loves! Make sure to bring a variety, and a lot of them! You will go through a lot of reinforcers during class. In addition to treats, you can also bring your dog's kibble/dinner.
Make sure your dog is wearing a plain buckle collar, martingale collar, Gentle Leader, or approved harness. If you have a hard time controlling your dog to and from the car, make sure to contact us before class so we can make the best arrangements to help you.
Have your dog on a 6-foot training leash. Leather, nylon, or cotton work great - whatever you are most comfortable with. NO retractable leashes please.
Your dog's vaccination records! If you haven't been able to email them, make sure to bring your pup's vaccination records with you on your first night of class!
And, don't forget your clicker! Note: If it's your first night of class you will be given a clicker when you arrive!
