Space is limited. This presentation is for the human end of the leash only, no dogs please.
Attendance to this Presentation is a prerequisite for membership to the Black Creek Dog Park. This ensures all Park users are educated in Park etiquette and safety. There are many ways to become a member, contact Jane to learn how.

Come When Called & Walk on a Loose Leash
Thursday Mornings at the Canine Conduct Training Grounds. Begins April 11, 2019 and runs until Fall.
A bit of training to keep your dog fresh and responding well to your cues. A pat on your back for continuing the training.
Pre-Registration is required.
First and Third Thursdays at 11:00am ~ Reliable Recalls ~ Learn all the steps needed to teach your dog to turn away from distractions and come back to you when you call.
Second and Fourth Thursdays at 11:00am ~ Loose Leash Walking ~ Learn how to teach, and then practice, polite walking with a loose leash. One of the goals is polite meeting & greeting of other dogs and people. Learn how to use the leash to communicate with rather than control your dog.
*$35 for the 1 hour lesson. Canine Conduct Members' rate is $25.
Living with a reactive dog can be difficult. In this presentation Jane will explain how to help your dog learn to turn away from triggers such as other dogs, bikes, cars, etc. Having a dog that lunges and barks and completely "tunes out" the human end of the leash can be embarrassing, frustrating, and sometimes scary. Over the years, Jane has noticed that more often than not, it is how the leash is handled that triggers the dog into the unfavourable reaction. During the presentation, you will learn how to connect with your dog using an understanding of Dog Speak and how movement can influence the outcome. Learn leash skills that will communicate with rather than control your dog.
This presentation is for the human end of the leash only, but do bring your dog's leash...you will be learning the mechanics of leash skills on each other rather than learning on your dog.
The next presentation will be held at the Canine Conduct Training Grounds on Sunday, March 4, 2018 from 3:00pm to 5:00pm. This presentation follows the Dog Speak presentation.
