Luring, Watch, Body Blocking and Reinforcement:
Tools on which to build a foundation
Monday, September 8
6:00pm-8:00pm
Are you interested in improving your dog training skills? This 2 hour seminar will go over the basics of dog training. While this won’t take the place of actually attending a dog training class with your dog, this will help you use some of the basic skills needed and show you ways to get started training behaviors such as “sit”, “wait at the door” and “leave it”.
Reinforcement will also be discussed -- how to use it properly, and thinking outside the box when it comes to reinforcing your dog.
Please RSVP: 262-542-8851 or khris@hawspets.org
