Prerequisite: Beginner Obedience 

During this course we will introduce new commands, such as; emergency recall, place and back up. We will increase the response time and reliability on all known commands. Additionally we will begin walking in the heel position, controlling excitement, and ignoring toy and other distractions.

Prerequisite: Intermediate Obedience 

This course will continue to expand on all known commands resulting in an increase reliability as well as response time, but all will be done off leash. We continue working on walking in heel position, controlling excitement and ignoring food distractions. Several of our activities will be similar to test items on the AKC CGC Exam.
