Just for Tricks!
Welcome to Just for Tricks (Novice) with Unified K9 Behaviour! In these 5 weeks you will learn/review 20+ tricks.
The goal for this class is to teach you a new way to communicate and have fun creating a strong bond between guardian and dog. Tricks are a great way to keep your dog focused on you, any age/ breed/ size can do these tricks, and you can show off at social events! During these weeks our goal is to earn your novice trick title with “Do more for your dog”. After week 5 I will send out an email for the next steps if you wish to submit and title your dog.
Please bring high value treats (ex hot dogs, cheese, roll over) and/or a toy, anything that helps motivate your dog!
