Polite Pooch (Beginner)
Obedience / Agility Obstacle Intro
This class is for dogs 11 months of age and older and is a great starting point for your dogs obedience career. This class will provide the basics, whether you just want a mannerly dog that doesn’t jump on people or are laying the ground work for competition obedience.
We focus on helping you to train your dog to perform everyday life skills that all dogs should know. These include sit, down, stay, on your mat, heeling, recalls, meet and greet, and much, much, more. We will help you to become a team with your dog, and show you how to make training fun! Our goal is to help you develop you dog into a polite, well mannered dog that will be welcomed almost everywhere.

TNT Training teaches using positive reinforcement and motivational methods. To help your dog understand what we are trying to teach them, we use food rewards. This method of teaching is proven to accelerate the learning process for dogs. The alternative to positive training, is to use compulsion and adversive methods and this type of training is not only old-fashioned and highly outdated, but also produces dogs that work out of fear and not because they “want” to. At TNT we want both yourselves AND your dogs to enjoy the learning and training process.
