WoofGang Training Classes
Mary has several different types of training classes available to fit your needs and the abilities of your dog. She maintains a low dog-to-instructor ratio so that each dog and handler receives individual attention. PLEASE NOTE THAT MARY USES AND WOOFGANG PROMOTES POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT TECHNIQUES AT ALL TIMES!!!!!

6:30-7:30 PM - BEGINNER OBEDIENCE
This class is designed for dogs who have not had much formal obedience training. Also appropriate are dogs who have learned some basic skills in puppy kindergarten, but who need to polish and review to be more reliable in a group setting. TOPICS COVERED: No jumping, loose leash walking, attention sills, sit, down, stay, come, leave it, and mat work (teaching your dog to lay down on a mat.) Treats and toys will be used to reward dogs, as well as petting and love!
7:45-8:45 PM - GREYHOUND 101
Bring out the hounds! This special class for our retired racers will help them transition into their new "careers" as pets and fast friends. This class will help you to understand how your hounds think, how to communicate with them, and how to encourage good manners. TOPICS COVERED: Sit, down, leave it, no jumping, food stealing, crate training/separation anxiety and more!
8:45-9:45 PM - CONTROL UNLEASHED
We are pleased to offer this popular class at WoofGang! This class is for dogs who need to learn more self-control. While this is an immensely popular class for agility dogs who have trouble focusing around other dogs running and playing, it's also appropriate for dogs who need to learn more focus and self-control at home, when guests come over, or out on walks. Based on the book by Leslie McDevvit, this class will also work on relaxation protocols by Karen Overall.
