Prerequisite: Completion of STOP PULLING – Part 1

In this next 4-week series (skipping the week of Thanksgiving,) we build on the foundation established in Part 1 and begin applying those skills in more dynamic, real-world scenarios. 

As your dog gains understanding, we will gradually increase distractions, introduce more movement and environmental challenges, and refine your timing, handling, and communication. Exercises will include advanced long line work, transitions between structured and casual walking, and navigating real-life situations with clarity and confidence.

This class is designed to help you take your leash skills from practice to everyday life — creating reliable, enjoyable walks even when the world around you gets busy.

Required equipment: A 15–20 ft long line (no longer, please): https://www.chewy.com/petsafe-cotton-dog-training-lead/dp/192916
