Come once\, or as often as you’re able! An ARL instructor will be available to answer any questions you have or give you help as needed. All dogs will be taught in a humane manner using positive reinforcement methods. This class is limited to 4 dogs. \nFees\n$40 per class\, includes a clicker for training. Fees for classes are subject to change and are non-refundable. \nNote about Treats\nThe best way to train your pet is through the proper use of positive reinforcement and rewards. Please bring plenty of high-value treats to class\, such as cut-up hot dogs\, cheese\, chicken\, and chewy training treats.
