Are You Looking For a Way to Do Some Fun, At Home Dog Training?
We invite you to experience a little of the magic that comes from slowing down and connecting with your dog through training for five minutes a day. This course isn’t focused on a singular behavior goal like “recall,” and it also isn’t aimed at fixing a specific problem. Instead, it’s packed with a variety of activities including tricks, cooperative care, recall, and enrichment. Each day, we walk you through a new activity and hopefully give you and your dog skills and frameworks that you’ll be able to use long after the challenge is over.
What You’ll Learn
Each day you’ll get to learn and practice skills with your dog including a variety of cooperative care frameworks, relax on a mat, fun tricks like figure 8s and backing up to a platform, getting the environment to send your dog to their bed, attention pattern games, recall games, and more! Our focus throughout the course is on creating conversations with our dogs, so you’ll see that theme woven throughout each activity.
How It Works
Just like our original Tails of Connection Challenge, which is not a prerequisite for Challenge 2.0, you will train with us for five minutes a day for 14 days starting March 9. You can login to the course each day, watch our short videos, and work with your dog. After that you will retain access to the course and can go at your own pace whenever works for you.
Fun and Community
This is not a course about being perfect - you or your dog! It’s about showing up and connecting. During our “live” window, you’ll get extra connection in the form of a big group of people all working on the same thing. We will send some emails and share tagged stories and posts during this time, so it creates a fun energy. We LOVE rooting for you and can’t wait to see y’all share your joy and laughs through training.
