PUPPY SOCIAL and TRAINING TIPS

This is a FREE drop in playgroup for puppies 4 months or younger. It is also an opportunity to get your training questions answered by Lisa, owner and operator of Citizen Canine. We offer this class at 10:30am on the first Saturday of each month at Marty’s Meals in north Boulder. Puppies are encouraged to have at least one set of vaccinations. Contact Lisa or Marty’s Meals ahead of time, or just stop by with your puppy! Click here for possible cancellations.

ADOLESCENT ANARCHY

Just because your dog looks like an adult doesn’t mean he is one yet! Adolescent dogs are still changing physiologically which often leads to new and unwelcome behaviors. Now is the time for more training and socialization, not less! This one time FREE class is a photo and video presentation that teaches you to understand what dogs are saying through body language, what appropriate play looks like, what features to look for when it’s not all about fun, when to intervene, how to intervene, and how to work with a dog that is out of his or her mind with excitement. We will discuss the challenges and solutions of training when your dog is distracted. You will get lots of tips and training suggestions in the class and handouts to take home with you. Please join us for an entertaining and informative couple of hours!

Please register here if you would like to attend. If you don’t see a class scheduled, please contact us.
