Therapy Dog Training Class

This course builds from basic manners—like greeting strangers, leash walking, and ignoring dropped food—to advanced skills such as stay, sitting for petting, and working confidently around distractions. Training combines classroom practice with real-world public access lessons at a local pet-friendly business.
