Struggling with pulling, freezing, or nonstop distractions on walks? This 1-hour, hands-on workshop is designed to give dog owners clear leash mechanics and practical tools they can start using immediately.
This session focuses on building calm, structured leash walking through proper handling, timing, and engagement โ€” not just โ€œtiring your dog out.โ€

Jumping on people
Constantly trying to greet dogs or strangers on walks
Eating things off the ground
Selective Hearing
Performing basic commands under distractions
โš ๏ธ While behavior topics are addressed, this workshop is primarily leash-focused.
