This workshop is designed to help you manage your dog's attention more effectively. These exercises, based on Leslie McDevitt’s “Control Unleashed” system, are great for teaching dogs to focus their attention on their owners, resulting in better recalls, less pulling on a walk, and even being able to pass by distractions such as cats, squirrels, and other dogs or humans that your pup might normally over-react to! Friendly, non-aggressive dogs are welcome to attend with their handlers. Please indicate if you intend to bring a dog with you in your registration. If your dog is reactive, we ask that you keep your dog at home, but highly encourage you to join us and learn some exercises to practice at home!
