This is a class that is held outside and out and about in the “real world” – each week will be at a different location. This will help ensure that your four footed family member is well behaved in situations outside of the normal classroom setting as well as at home.

During this class you will be working on basic manners skills as well as more advanced skills such as stays and recalls in the presence of that ever-taunting squirrel and possibly out of water! This class will be more than a walk in the woods or downtown. You will be applying the skills you have already learned - in a totally uncontrolled environment!

Possible locations each session are: Downtown Appleton, High Cliff State Park, a Local Pet Store, an Assisted Living Facility and a Dog Beach.
