Intermediate Skills: Distractions

Class Overview

Looking to continue training with your dog? Our Intermediate Level has 3 different modules, including our Distractions Module. Modules can be taken in any order. Intermediate Skills: Distractions Many families tell us their dogs are well-behaved at home, but handling distractions is a different story. In this class, we’ll focus on building your dog’s ability to stay attentive, even when the world around them gets exciting. You’ll learn how to match training to your dog’s skill level, what steps to take when distractions become too much, and how to use specific distractions to reinforce your dog’s training progress.
