Farm Dog Drop-In Class: Boost Your Dog’s Skills and Connection

Our Farm Dog Drop-In Class is the perfect opportunity to work on your dog’s basic obedience, real-life skills, and build a stronger connection with them—without the commitment of a long-term course. Whether you're looking to refine certain skills or address new challenges, this flexible class offers the perfect setting to improve your dog’s behavior in a natural, hands-on environment.

Held twice a month during the summer and once a month during the winter, these classes are designed to meet the needs of all dogs and handlers. Each session is 1.5 hours long and provides focused, customized training in a relaxed, supportive setting. Whether you're just starting out or looking to fine-tune your dog’s skills, every class is different, keeping things fresh and engaging for both you and your dog.

 

What You’ll Work On:

The Farm Dog Drop-In Class covers a wide variety of topics that are essential for dogs living or working in a farm environment—or any setting that requires well-behaved, responsive dogs. Some of the skills we focus on include:

  • Recall Practice: Strengthening your dog’s response to recall, ensuring they come when called, even with distractions.

  • Ignoring Livestock: Teaching your dog to stay calm and focused around animals or other distractions, a key skill for farm dogs.

  • Greeting Strangers: How to train your dog to remain calm and polite when meeting new people, reducing excitement or anxiety.

  • Loose Leash Walking: Improving leash manners and ensuring your dog walks calmly by your side, whether on a trail or around town.

  • Restaurant Practice: Building confidence and good behavior for dogs who join you in public spaces, including restaurants and outdoor cafes.

  • Real-Life Skills: Addressing any specific challenges or behaviors you need help with—each class is tailored to meet the needs of the group.
