Class Description: Trick Training for Therapy and Fun

Nothing breaks the ice faster at a therapy visit - or charms a shy child better - than a dog who wows with fun and entertaining tricks. And tricks are a great way to build serious training skills as you help your dog understand the “training game” and learn all kinds of behaviors.

You and your dog will master a repertoire of crowd-pleasing tricks, including wave, shake, high five, roll over, etc. He can earn Trick Dog titles through Do More With Your Dog, too!

You’ll also learn how to use a gentle, motivation-based approach to build any behavior from scratch, put it on verbal cue, and proof it so it works in all settings.

How this class will benefit you at home:

• Learning rewarding trick behaviors builds a dog eager to obey non-trick commands too

• Tricks are one of the best ways to channel your dog’s energy

• You’ll form a closer and more communicative bond with your dog

• Tricks improve flexibility, balance, and concentration
