Holiday Manners Class

Is your dog ready for the holidays?

Will your dog greet guests by jumping on them? Will your dog bark for attention as your home bustles with family and friends? Can your dog resist the temptation to swipe snacks from tables piled high with sweet, tasty treats? 

If a polite, well-behaved dog is at the top of your wish list, give yourself the gift of serenity this year by taking Clever Canine's Holiday Manners class.

The holidays with your dog can be much more enjoyable and peaceful than they have in the past.

​Take the first step and come join us for our Holiday Manners class!

Our four week Holiday Manners class starts on Monday October 30th from 7 to 8pm at our Waterford location.

Get ready for guests and dinner parties with this class for dogs who are overzealous greeters. Holiday Manners will help you manage an over-friendly dog when guests visit.

• Instead of running to the front door and jumping all over it when the bell rings, dogs will learn to Go To a Mat and Stay there until you let your guests in
• Barking at the doorbell will be addressed
• “Leave It” behaviors will be strengthened and proofed so if you knock the thanksgiving turkey off the counter your dog doesn’t try to eat it
• Dogs will learn “Drop it” so if they steal something, you can get it back on request
• Dogs will learn a few charming tricks to show off to guests
• Techniques will be discussed for preventing your dog from engaging in nuisance behaviors like nudging guests for attention or trying to climb into their lap
• Class will have a pizza party for graduation at which we will practice behaviors learned in class

Please note, this class is not for dogs who are afraid of guests or exhibit aggression towards guests. Those behaviors are best addressed in a private consult.
