Tricks (with Sassie Joiris - click for bio)
Who doesn’t love tricks?  Trick training is a chance to interact with your
dog without the self-imposed stress of training for competition, it’s an
opportunity to teach your dog ‘show off’ skills that impress your friends,
and it’s certainly always a good laugh, but trick training can be much
more than that.  Trick training also teaches problem solving, increases
attention, and improves physical fitness.

Whether your dog is fully trained, or a puppy just learning his name, as
long as he has an appetite he can have fun learning new ways to impress
you.  This high energy class will cover golden oldies like shaking hands and
rolling over as well as less common tricks like crawling backward, turning
on a light and pouring a drink.  Since dogs come in all shapes and sizes,
tricks do too, so we’ll all work together to find the perfect tricks to
showcase each dog’s special qualities.

More importantly, rather than taking a cookbook approach to teaching
each trick step by step, you’ll learn some simple techniques that will
make enable you to teach a wide variety of tricks quickly and easily.  You’
ll go home not only with a dog who knows some new tricks, but with a
good foundation for lots of others.

Every dog has at least one trick that they will excel at, and every trick
has benefits way beyond just goofing around.  Come teach your new dog
old tricks and your old dog new tricks, and feel good about all the good
you’re doing for them.

Cost:  TBD (5-week class) with Sassie Joiris.  
Sassie will be presenting this
class as a seminar in August at Clean Run.
