Classes Content & Equipment

Traveling Dog Trainer Classes will be limited to 10 human participants and 10 dog participants in order to provide the level of personalized and individual instruction Loose Leash Logic requires.  However, this class differs fundamentally from what Traveling Dog Trainer does with private clients.  You will be taught to train a dog in a group setting with up to 9 other participating dogs and humans in a public setting. When teaching a private client, Traveling Dog Trainer teaches their dog the command; and once the dog understands what is expected of him, then each family member is taught to replicate that behavior in order to hold the dog accountable to what he has already learned. Traveling Dog Trainer clients do no dog training themselves. Because once a dog initially learns a behavior or a command he then immediately switches into practicing what he has already learned, in classes each human handler will be doing most of the initial learning sessions for their own dog. If someone owns multiple dogs they wish to bring for participation, they can only bring one dog per class.
 
Also keep in mind that all the dogs that we work with at the Classes will leave the Classes with all their Basic Training or the Complete Fundamentals Training obedience commands learned depending on the Classes you choose. However, each dog will still need consistent practice in order for these new commands to become ingrained behavior in the dog. This necessary practice will not be accomplished in one Class, but rather over a period of weeks as you work with the dog in his normal environment.
 
In Basic Training classes, we will cover Loose Leash Logic extensively. Then we will move into Leash Walking and Sit, then Stay and Come. For the Complete Fundamentals Classes we will continue with Drop It, Leave It, Stay Inside/Stay Outside, etc. Our last hour will constitute learning Down and any problem that may arise with certain Classes participants. For either Classes, expect to be inundated with an inordinate amount of information and to be quite exhausted by the day’s end!  However, this experience will equip you to be a better dog handler and trainer than you have ever thought possible.

​

Each dog will need a harness with a front and back clip, a 4-6 foot leash, a 50 foot long line.  Any special equipment not listed along with 50 foot long lines are available for purchase with Lauren.
