What to bring to class:

Your dog can be worked on a flat buckle collar in class with a 4 – 6 foot leash.  If you are used to working your dog on a slip collar, that is also allowed.     

Before you come to class, think about what “motivates” your dog!  What does your dog like best?  Is your dog mostly:

q       Food oriented (a chow hound)?

Bring a variety of food as rewards for your dog:  what does the dog REALLY like?  Some suggestions of easy to use food treats:  hot dog or sausage cut up into thin slices (it’s easiest to cut when frozen), string cheese, left over roast beef, turkey or chicken, liver, commercially prepared treats (Puperoni, beef jerky, etc.).  Also very good and easy to use – pre-cooked meatballs in the frozen foods section.  Remember, cater to your dog’s food loves - bring some truly delectable delights!  Cut your treats up into small chunks – ¼” – ½” square is ideal.  We don’t want your dog to get fat AND we want the dog to be able to swallow the treat whole without choking.  DON’T bring dry dog biscuit or kibble type treats – they take too long for the dog to chew, besides – they aren’t “yummy”!    

q       Toy oriented (loves to play with toys, fetch, plays tug etc.)?

Bring several of your dog’s favorite toys.  If you choose to bring toys rather than treats, the dog should truly be “obsessed” with his/her toys!  It’s often best to bring both food AND toys for the variety!

q       Leashes:  Bring a plain 4-6’ nylon or leather leash without any attachments.  No Flexi-leads since they get caught in the equipment.
