Course Details
Maximize your puppy’s confidence and resilience with Control Unleashed and ACE (Animal Centred Care) Free Work. I’ve raised many puppies of my own, but it is my most recent puppy who I raised with a CU and Free Work foundation and the results have been astonishing! She is confident, resilient, easy to train, emotionally healthy, and the best early relationship that I’ve had by the time she’s reached adolescence. Let me share this with you so that you can see the same results - I’ll teach to you all the things that I taught her and more!
Control Unleashed focuses on patterns to build predictability and skills to allow our puppy to communicate how they’re feeling. It’ll provide them with the life skills that are necessary for growing up in our crazy world. I’ll also introduce Free Work (for the very first time for FDSA!) and how you can use this powerful tool to not only enhance your CU skills, but to build an emotionally and physically healthy, stable puppy.
Puppies are my jam. I have been teaching puppy classes since 2012 and have introduced a number of CU and Free Work skills into my curriculum over the years. I have also raised multiple puppies of my own, as well as helped to raise two litters (with plans to raise more!). This class is ideal for the young puppy with a bright future in sports, work, family, or all! Puppies would preferably be between the ages of 2-5 months old so that learning can begin with these skills, however older puppies are welcome. Please inquire if you’d like to know if this is the right fit for your puppy
