Karen Prior Academy - Dog Training Professional

 A maximum of 2 persons per dog may attend. 

This group class is the perfect transition from Puppy Start Right Pre-School, however there is no pre-requisite.   

These social butterflies often lack impulse control, and want to greet everyone, so we'll be working on that! 

This Science & Reward Based Training runs for 5 consecutive weeks for 60 minutes. 

Throughout classes we will touch on these important subjects specific to Adolescence:  

  • Behaviour changes that occur during adolescence 
  • Common adolescent dog behaviour concerns: counter surfing, barking, destructive chewing, biting and mouthing during play/when excited. 
  • Adolescent fear periods (what are they, when do they typically occur, signs your dog is entering a fear period, what to do during this time)
  • Meeting adolescent dog’s needs (physical exercise, mental stimulation, enrichment, social needs, rest)

While Playing Fun Games and Interacting with your Teen, you'll be Luring, Capturing & Shaping and introducing your Teen to:  

  • Attention & engagement (pattern games, captured attention)
  • Polite greetings - Dog / Human
  • Polite greetings - Dog / Dog (practice with gate in between)
  • Nose to hand targeting
  • Settling and relaxation (rewarding calm behaviour, mat training, calm down routine)
  • Building calm and focus around distractions (engage-disengage, pattern games) 
  • Loose leash walking & Recall
