We are now offering open enrollment for our first Foundation 101 group class for 2025!!  

What is Foundation 101?

Foundation 101 is exactly what it seems...the very basics, the core on which we build positive behaviors moving forward. Some of the behaviors we’ll learn include, but are not limited to:

. marker training

· getting the dog to ask for our engagement and staying with us

· beginning to create an environmentally neutral dog

· proper rewarding techniques & timing

· impulse control

· basic behaviors such as walking on a leash, sit, down and stay 

When are the classes?

Classes begin at 10:00am and last for about an hour. The dates are as follows:

· June 28

· July 12

· July 26

· Aug 9

· Aug 23 – Graduation

Where?

Classes will be held at the Clark County Fairgrounds (4980 Ironworks Rd, Winchester)

How much does it cost?

Cost is $150 and can be paid on Facebook via the events tab or via this link:

These classes will be limited to 7 dogs only (1 dog per person) – small classes allow me more one on one time with each participant – so don’t miss out, the first 7 paid slots will fill the class!  

As it is your responsibility to work with your dog as instructed there are no refunds!

What is a Canine Good Citizen?

The Canine Good Citizen program is recognized as the standard of behavior for dogs in our communities. It is a 10-skill evaluation that ensures a dog has good manners in multiple situations and responsible dog ownership by their owners. The 10 test items on the CGC test are practical, functional behaviors that every dog should have to be welcomed in the community.

The test items are: accepting a friendly stranger, sitting politely for petting, appearance and grooming, loose leash walking, walking through a crowd, sit/down/stay on cue, recall, reaction to another dog, reaction to distractions and supervised separation. Upon completing the class we will have a certified AKC CGC evaluator come in and test each dog team (date/time/location - TBD) to earn your AKC Canine Good Citizen certification!

When are the classes?

Classes begin at 10:00am and last for about an hour. The dates are as follows:
