This class is designed to strengthen your dog’s ability to stay focused and well-behaved in increasingly distracting situations, whether at home or out in the community. Building on the skills from Manners 2, we’ll work on advanced exercises such as extended stays from a distance, supervised separation, handling multiple distractions, navigating crowds, and maintaining focus in chaotic environments.
Successful completion of this course will prepare your dog for the AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test, which you can take for a small additional fee. This class is also a key stepping stone for handlers and dogs aiming to pursue advanced titles or certifications. Prerequisite: Completion of Manners 2 or demonstrated mastery of equivalent skills.
