ADVANCED TRAINING

Has your dog completed the Basic Training Course here at Mountain Humane? Maybe you have been keeping their skills sharp on your own, but want a group setting to continue learning in? Then the Advanced Course may be just what you need!

In this course you will build on the basic behaviors such as stay, recall, walking on leash, and leave it, by adding more real life challenges, while also learning some other awesome tricks along the way. The goal of this course is for your dog to be able to listen to you in more challenging situations, and for you to learn how to problem solve and troubleshoot so you can help your pup continue to hone their skills throughout their lives.

  • Course 1 will meet Aug. 18th – Sep. 22nd, @6:30pm.
