Healing and Attention Skills

This class will focus on improving heeling and attention skills, working as a team, and how to use treats as a tool rather than a crutch. Changes of pace, spins, twirls, touches, and other fun skills will be learned to use as rewards. This class will be fast paced so bring lots of treats, a favorite toy, and be sure to wear closed toe shoes.
