Question 3

How do I prepare for a training session?

Accepted Answer

The day of our session, we recommend feeding a smaller meal than usual. They are more likely to take treats if they are a bit more hungry and this will lead to a more successful session. We ask that you have your dog in their natural state when guests arrive at your home(unless discussed otherwise). We will be bringing high quality limited ingredient rewards. Please have some of your normal treats prepped so we can have a variety. Treats should be about pea sized. If you have a treat bag, that would be great. If not, we will have ours that can be borrowed!
