NEW! Grooming & Handling
3 weeks, 1 hour
Ages: All ages welcome
Cost: $150 + tax
Class Full, next class TBD
In this class, we cover all aspects of at-home body handling and grooming. The Grooming & Handling Class is designed for dogs who are not comfortable with being handled, or groomed, as well as those looking to desensitize their new puppy to handling and grooming. Three (1) hour long weekly sessions. During class, we will cover the correct tools to use for your dog's coat, and how to use them properly. We focus on teaching techniques using gentle-firmness, working at your dog's pace, and pairing good associations with body handling/grooming. Using these methods your dog will learn to not only accept grooming, but enjoy and consent to it! Along with covering handling and grooming training, each class has time put aside to concentrate on your dog’s specific areas that are sensitive or more challenging.
If your dog shows more aggressive behaviors toward grooming and handling please call to discuss prior to sign up.
Desensitization to:
Body Handling
Brushing
Nail Clippers/ Dremel
Ear Cleaning
