WORKSHOP: Impulse Control

Is your dog out of control?

Does your dog jump up on you or other people, bark to be fed or to play, barge through doors, raid the coffee table or the waste bin, pull on leash, never listen, etc?

Then this two-hour workshop is for you!

We will discuss the problems associated with impulse control issues and practice exercises to TEACH YOUR DOG SELF CONTROL.

Topics covered will include:

- pulling on leash

- jumping up

- mouthing

- chasing small animals

- counter surfing

- demand barking

- barging through doors

- general lack of attention / not listening

- and more...

What Clients Are Saying:

Louie and I just completed the Puppy Start Right program with Stef at Cowichan Canine, and what a fabulous experience. PSR covers all the basics, with carefully curated play sessions, exposure to various sounds and things from our human world, training tips, and lots of practical advice. Stef is kind and very experienced and has helped me to remember that these crazy first months of puppyhood - with the constant vigilance, all the peeing and biting, and the early wakeup calls - will pass, and is just part of the journey to a well-trained socialized dog. I will always remember how Louie passed out in the car on the way home from class: happy, tired and snoring ever so slightly. Thanks Stef, I cannot imagine doing this without Cowichan Canine.

We enrolled our dog Xena in the basic Foundations course. Cowichan Canine provided professional and usable training for us. Our trainer Stephanie is an amazingly patient and knowledgeable instructor. The small class size was ideal and we always were able to get the attention and training instruction we needed. I would highly recommend Cowichan Canone to any dog owner who wants to improve the behaviour of their dog. We will be enrolling Xena in more classes in the near future.
