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)
