Care Training - Private

  This course is for owners who need help teaching their dogs to accept basic handling of any part of their dogs' body.  This assists with ear cleaning, paw cleaning, brushing, tooth cleaning, nail clipping, and administering ear and eye medication to name a few benefits. This will also assist you if you need to teach your dog to love the vet again. We also have an in-house mock-up veterinary examination room, which can be used to build confidence in your dog, without the stress of an actual examination.

Basket muzzles allow dogs to enjoy treats, drink, and pant comfortably.

If you take the time to train your dog to wear a muzzle, it should be comfortable to wear

 at any time, not just in a highly stressful situation. 

• Ethical muzzles can stop dogs from eating non-food items that can be toxic.
• Ethical muzzles can keep everyone safe during off-leash or on-leash walks.
• Ethical muzzles can tell other owners and dogs to give them some space.
• Ethical muzzles can keep everyone safe at the vet's office.

It's advisable to measure your dog for a basket muzzle so that you have the muzzle ready for our training session together.
