Upcoming Events
Help your dog learn to pause, think, and make better choices — even around their biggest distractions!
This clinic is your opportunity to zoom out and go deeper with a well-rounded deep dive into impulse control and how it shows up across your dog’s daily life.
We’ll tackle impulse control around:
-
On-leash excitement
-
Food & “leave-it” challenges
-
Meeting and greeting people
-
Doorways & thresholds
-
Other dogs (dog neutrality)
Members may attend for free in either working or auditing spots. Working spots are limited and first come, first served.
