Intermediate Obedience
Take training to the next level to improve responsiveness and fine tune teaching skills
Start NowOur Intermediate Obedience group dog training class is designed for those students who have have successfully achieved a solid foundation of basic manners training in our basic level group classes (most students will need to attend two previous basic level classes to qualify, but contact us with questions) and/or during private lessons with one of our trainers. This group dog training class focuses on refining hand signals, improving responsiveness to
verbal cues, increasing responsiveness to cues at a distance, creating a more reliable recall (come when called), stay, impulse control, and leave it, and teaching ‘go to your place’ and settle. This course will help fine tune and improve upon your previous training, as well as allow you an opportunity for troubleshooting behavior issues common to NYC dog parents. Dogs with reactivity and/or aggression issues of any kind are not appropriate for this class.
