What to bring:

-Your dog! Preferably a little hungry, and having been given a potty break prior to class.

-flat buckle collar, martingale collar, head halter, front-attaching harness (ex. Freedom or Balance harnesses) or body harness. Please no prong collars or slip/choke collars.

-6 foot nylon or leather leash. Please no flexi/retractable leashes.

-treat pouch. A fanny pack, climber’s chalk bag, or hardware apron will work well too!

-treats! At least two cups (I know, it’s a lot!) of pea-sized delicious treats. Your treats need to outcompete the environment, so hot dogs, ham and cheese will all work well.

-A mat or platform for your dog to rest on between exercises.

-Optional: a chew or stuffed kong for your dog to chew during downtimes.
