Off Leash (voice control)

• All commands are done "off leash" at significant distances.

​

IMPORTANT INFORMATION * No call no shows will forfeit that session. Typically, the trainers make a special trip for that day's training. Thank you for understanding. No one under the age of 15 is allowed at the transfer sessions. It takes a level of skill, patience and maturity to train dogs and we have found that younger kids typically have a hard time catching on to this. But once you learn you can teach them at home!
