We will meet at John McGee Park this time! Location subject to change, weather permitting…so stay tuned!
ASA offers the opportunity for kids to participate in this hands-on training experience with our temperament tested Assistance Dogs!
We discuss: individuals with disabilities and how we can help, working dogs, safety, the importance of exercise, communication skills, grooming, vet care, acting appropriately around dogs, and last but not least; the pawesome world of DOG TRAINING!
Jr. Trainers participate by helping us train our Program Assistance Dogs! They might desensitize our younger puppies, distract the older pups, or even have the chance for a hands-on training experience with our advanced dogs!!
Education is the primary goal of the ASA organization! We train dogs, handlers, recipients, family members, healthcare professionals, other trainers, and the general public; now we're educating our future generations - the KIDS!
Our teaching methods emphasize balance, structure, fairness, focus, compassion, attention to detail, planning, empathy, routine, responsibility, and finding enjoyment in “work”!
The Jr. Trainer Program is offered at no charge! Donations are always appreciated to allow our nonprofit organization to continue offering FREE educational programs and events!??
