Have you ever wondered why your dog pulls on a leash, jumps up to greet people, and won’t do as you ask? This course will teach you how to communicate with your dog effectively. You will learn the skills necessary to teach your dog basic manners using reward-based training methods. We will build reliable behaviors such as sit, down, stay, wait, come, leave it, tug, and much more!
Pack Square Collective is bringing back their beloved Pups & Pints event at the Corner of Eagle Street and S Market Street and we are beyond honored to be the organization this event is benefiting!
The Arboretum's Halloween dog festivities are back and bigger than ever! Guests can explore the gardens through Halloween-themed and dog-focused activities, including a "Pupparazzi Photo Contest" (free entry for members, $10 for non-members), Dare Devil Dogs performances, trail etiquette information, workshops, and more.

We will expand upon basic training to help you get reliability anywhere, anytime, and at any distance. Your dog will learn how to stop forward movement when running towards a distraction, sitting at a distance, and more!
Your goal as a puppy parent is to give your pup the best possible start in life. Puppies learn more between 5 and 16 weeks of age than they will in their entire lifetime! Laying a positive foundation during this time is critical for puppies to grow into behaviorally healthy dogs. This course focuses on proper socialization, bite inhibition, house training, manners, and more!
