Training on the fli

Whether adolescent or adult, some dogs need a little extra help when it comes to these skills. Training on the FLI is a fun, fast-paced class for dogs that has handlers thinking and practicing in real time around distractions. Before leash and impulse control games begin, we’ll work on getting the mother of all behaviors—focus! Please shift some calories out of your food bowl on class day. Bring lots of soft, smelly, yummy and  pea-sized food or pieces. Bring more than you think you’ll need!
