We utilize respected learning theory that supports both human and canine learners! Our Canine Educators understand how people & dogs learn. We understand that different dogs have different needs and varied motivation. We know that some clients are new to the joy of learning with their dog, and others are seasoned dog enthusiasts who are seeking to add to their extensive knowledge base. Classes and private lessons are designed to be fun AND cognitively stimulating for everyone. We provide plenty of time for demonstration, practice and discussion. We vary our teaching activities to include games and problem-solving procedures. We focus on teaching humans and their canine family members how to effectively communicate with one another, and the results are happy people and dogs. We provide learning opportunities for puppies, elder dogs, and all ages in between. Dogs who are shy, fearful and reactive have multiple classes and private lesson options. Agility, nose games and adventure field trips are also available. In partnership with Project Canine, we also offer therapy dog preparation classes, testing and certification opportunities. Mutiple CPDT KA instructors are on our teaching staff. We also offer a Canine Educator Preparation Program for our staff to learn how to be effective and caring instructors dedicated to creating a wonderful learning environment for all.
