AJ'S Waggin' Train

In a basic dog obedience training class, prepare to meet weekly. The sessions typically last for an hour and courses run for approximately 6 weeks. A basic dog obedience training class will cover social behavior, basic training and training-related topics to curb undesirable behavior such as jumping or tugging on the leash.

Note: A basic dog obedience class is not designed to address and solve all your dog’s behavioral problems. This class is designed to provide you and your dog a solid foundation upon which to learn, grow and bond with your dog.

When you attend a basic obedience training class you help your dog understand what you expect of him (sit and stay, or walking well on a leash) and it provides you with the knowledge of how to communicate with your dog. It will strengthen the bond between you and your dog because you will both understand each other better. Also, attending the class will provide your dog exercise, socialization and a sense of accomplishment (many dogs like having “jobs).

During the basic obedience class, expect your dog will learn the basics such as: sit, stay, come, heel and down. If you’d like your dog to receive more in depth training, it’s best that he (and you) master basic obedience before signing him or her up for other classes.

Be sure to approach doggy training classes as a way for you and your dog to strengthen your bond and to deepen the lifelong relationship you both will share.
