Freedom Park Group Lesson w/ Turk

February 10 @ 16:00 - 17:00

All Levels Group Lesson: This is an Outdoor Event 

Freedom Park Group Expectations

This is a great beginner group for newly qualified handlers, and a very nice group to expand your the skills if you’re an experienced handlers. Turk runs a fluid group lesson to help each person get better. 

We will start with Meet & Greet and let the group’s skill set determine how we will proceed. By the end of the group lesson you will be much better handler.

Some of you drive 40+ minutes. So we have established some general rules to cut down on unnecessary travel time.

🔥 General Rules:

  • Group Lessons are cancelled Above 90 degrees or below 32 degrees and/or heavy rain 1 hour before any group lesson
  • We begin at the posted time promptly. We will stay 15-30 minutes after the group for Q&A
  • Always follow leash laws. We require all dogs leashed at the beginning of the group lesson.
  • Do not let your dog rush up to other people’s dogs before the group.
  • Aggressive Dogs must wear muzzle unless directed otherwise.
  • Group Lessons are what we work on Advanced Handling Skills. If this is your first group lesson expect it to be hard (that’s where the fun/growth is)
  • Having fun is required. If you’re not having fun, you’re doing it wrong 😜
