Elite K9 Unit

Do you find your self being pulled or lead instead of being the leader? In this course the foundation will be built for further development. You cannot build anything solid without a good foundation. But like all structures it cannot be shakey. The client will be given the handling skills to get what they want the dog to do without stressing your four legged friend. The dog will be instructed a series of commands needed to accomplish the handler's goals while challenging him/her to think instead of react. Our On-Leash Obediance course is a 6-week private course that meets one hour a week.
