About the class
This course aims to equip dog owners with a foundational understanding of canine behavior and training principles. The first half focuses on core theoretical concepts, including canine learning mechanisms, motivational factors, human-canine relationship building, and the principles of behavior shaping and modification. This portion is exclusively for owners.
The second half translates theory into practice, focusing on essential skills such as leash manners (walking and greeting), as well as foundational obedience commands (place and recall).
This course emulates the rigorous training programs designed for professional dog trainers, providing owners with the practical knowledge and skills necessary for effective communication, impulse control management, and the cultivation of a strong, mutually beneficial human-canine bond.
