Ideal Puppy I is your puppy's first class, almost
like Kindergarten. Your puppy must be between 9 and 19 weeks at the start of
class.
Why should all puppies go to school? By five months of age much
of your puppy's personality has been determined, so it is very important to
begin a class prior to this age. Early puppyhood is a critical time for
socialization and learning. This time will set the stage for the rest of your
puppy's life. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime chance to show your puppy how
to confidently relate to other puppies, unfamiliar people, and strange sights,
sounds, and events. It is crucial that this developmental stage is used wisely!
We will work on critical skills such as socialization and bite
inhibition (developing a soft mouth), as well as issues such as housebreaking,
and chewing. Your pup will learn to control biting by playing with dogs his age.
It's important that your puppy learns to be comfortable in strange settings and
situations and to adapt to the world around him and feel at ease with other dogs
and people.
Puppy play to teach important dog-dog socialization skills,
is an important aspect of this class. We will also cover basic manners and
preventing bad habits and behavior problems. We will introduce basic obedience
such as sit, down, come, don't touch and follow. We will also discuss important
things like grooming, house training, and socialization. We will show you good
games to play with your puppy that are both fun and teach your puppy self
control.
Ideal Puppy II
immediately follows the Puppy I class. (See schedule above.)It's
important that you continue to bring your puppy to school for socialization
and learning. We will continue to work on attention, recalls, sit,
down and stays with increasing duration, distance, and distraction.
We will work on leave it, send to mat, tricks, resource guarding,
and other important issues. Socialization and puppy play continue
to be an important part of this class. You can sign up your pup
for Ideal Puppy II up to one year of age after graduating from the
Ideal Puppy I class.

| | | 6:15 PM - 7:15 PM | Focus Skills 2 - Indoor Training Room http://www.luckydogsportsclub.com/focus-skills-2.html Contact Mindy Cox - woof@luckydogsportsclub.com
Whether you want to strengthen what you’re dog already knows, or maybe you just enjoy the interaction with your dog, taking the next level class is a great idea! This class is recommended for graduates of Focus Foundation or any other obedience class. We will advance your dog’s level of training by strengthening what your dog learned at the basic level and adding new exercises. Your dog must be able to sit, down, stay and walk on a loose leash with distractions in order to take this class. All dogs in the class should be fine working around other dogs. We will be learning to use our body motion and position, and voice to direct our dogs, not controlling with the leash. Some off leash work will be performed in this more advanced class. As with all classes, this is a positive reinforcement class. No force or coercion will be used. No choke or pinch collars are allowed. You may use a regular collar or harness. You may also work your dog in a control harness (like the Easy Walk) or head halter (such as the Gentle Leader) and we can help you wean your dog off these devices if you like.
Instructor: Mindy Cox
| | 7:30 PM - 8:30 PM | Intro to Agility - Both Indoors & Out http://www.luckydogsportsclub.com/schedule.html#Intro Contact Mindy Cox - woof@luckydogsportsclub.com
In Introduction to Agility dogs will be introduced to many of the obstacles in agility such as jumps, tunnel, chute, and open weaves, in a safe and controlled manner. The skills needed to successfully negotiate the obstacles and the handling skills will be worked on weekly. Attention, focus and motivation will be practiced as the team builds confidence in an atmosphere that centers on learning skills while having fun. By the end of this class the dogs will have a good working knowledge of many of the obstacles (the A-frame, teeter, and the dogwalk will not be completed but we will begin shaping correct contact skills). Prerequisite - Focus Foundation, similar obedience class, or at instructor's discretion. Instructor: Mindy Cox. | File Name | File Size | File Type |

| | | 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM | Seminar- How Dogs Learn - Indoor Training Room http://www.luckydogsportsclub.com/dog-sports-events.html#Le... Contact Mindy Cox - woof@luckydogsportsclub.com
The Mind of the Dog: Understanding How Dogs Learn
This seminar on canine behavior and learning includes topics on early learning and socialization, dog behavior, body language, problem behaviors, training and management, behavior causes and fixes, fear and anxiety, and much more! We will talk about the prevention of bad behaviors and how to use tools such as counter conditioning to get your dog to happily do things he now resists. By the end of the seminar we hope you will have a greater insight into the mind of your dog!
If you work with dogs on a daily basis, such as animal hospital staff and groomers, our goal is to have you leave with a better understanding of how to keep your doggie clients happier and calmer while performing needed procedures. Learn how chores such as trimming nails on an anxious dog can become much simpler for both of you!

| | | 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM | Reactive Dog Class- Seminar (humans only) BOTH CLASSES - Indoor Training Room http://www.luckydogsportsclub.com/schedule.html#Reactive Contact Mindy Cox - woof@luckydogsportsclub.com
 Do you feel lost when your dog barks, growls or lunges at other dogs or people? This very special class is for all dogs that overreact in new situations or with new people or other dogs. They may become very stressed, anxious or shy, or they may become over excited and aggressive. This aggression is fear based and this behavior is appropriately called reactivity. If your dog can't calm down within a few seconds, he or she is probably a reactive dog. This class is about your dog learning relaxation and trust and overcoming fear and anxiety. The training methods used are based on the development of a working relationship with your dog. Understand what your reactive dog is doing, why he's doing it, and how to change it. Learn the tools to decrease the stress in your dog and teach him or her confidence and focus. Come work with your dog in a controlled, supportive environment with a small group of dog owners who understand your issues because they share them. Instill a conditioned emotional response, learn calming and management techniques, coping responses, and emergency escape exercises.
These are 6-week classes, held primarily indoors in a controlled environment, and then partially outdoors in a fenced area for the last two weeks. This class usually fills up quickly so please submit your registration form soon for a working spot (with your dog). There are auditing (without dog) spots also available. Instructor: Dr. Lisa Radosta, a board certified veterinary behaviorist. Course fee: $175. Fee to audit (without dog): $125. | File Name | File Size | File Type |
