Board and Train
My new Board and Train training programs which is a cooperative effort with Braveheart Dog Training and Dublin Creek Kennels is going great! We had dogs signed up while I was still finishing the curriculum! We have had several Board and Train clients come through and it's going wonderfully. The dogs are having a great time being trained and the clients are thrilled. How lucky I am to have access to such a beautiful facility and wonderful, caring staff.
New Training Location Soon!
Things are going so well with the partnership between Dublin Creek Kennels and myself that it is looking like I will be offering classes there in the near future. We are still working on all the details but when I have them you will all be the first to know!
DOG OF THE MONTH
Jillie "Bean" Salazar
Jillie is a 1 year old female German Shepherd who has been through several Braveheart classes! She is currently in our Canine Good Citizen class and our Indoor/Outdoor Intermediate. Jillie's owner is a professional dog trainer herself and it's great to have both Christine and Jillie in our classes!
Dogs and Babies Workshop with Stacy Braslau Schneck!
My good friend Stacy Braslau-Schneck is coming to Braveheart to teach a class on dogs and babies. I am so excited about this!
Prepare Your Dog for the New Baby," Thursday June 10, 6:30-8 PM. Cost is $30 per person or $50 per couple. If you are expecting (or recently added) a new human baby to your family, there will be a lot of changes for your family dog. In this seminar trainer and behavior specialist Stacy Braslau-Schneck from Stacy's Wag'N'Train will discuss some of the concerns you may have, signs of potential problems, and training methods you can use to prepare your dog for the next steps. This seminar should help ensure that everyone is safe and comfortable. This will be a lecture and demonstration, so please leave your dogs at home (babies are welcome). Contact me for more information!
