This class is just for EE volunteers to have a chance to practice their positive training skills with dogs! You can bring your own dog (or ask, we have extra dogs if you don't have your own) and learn positive dog training. The kids will learn dog body language and safe dog handling skills. They'll also spend each week learning to teach their dogs any skills they decide on that week, farm dog parkour, agility, cute tricks, or just focus on good manners! This class will be super fun for the kids and their puppies!
This class costs $200 total for the 4 weeks and you'll receive a free clicker and treat pouch from Empowered Equines! A portion of this class fee is donated to Empowered Equines to support their animal rescue and education program.
Dogs should have at least Rabies and Distemper vaccinations; many places require Kennel Cough vaccines as well.
All dogs should be dog tolerant. No “reactivity” to dogs or other animals. We have many farm animals, horses, donkeys, sheep, free roaming chickens/ducks and cats, so PLEASE keep your dogs supervised and on leash at all times!
Always clean up after your pup to keep the farm nice for everyone You are welcome to scoop and toss it right in the muck pile!
