Your dog's educational development is as vitally important as it is to your child. Most people simply do not realize that appropriate education for their dog can make the difference between a happy dog and an unhappy dog. Just as a good education can make a happy child. As you consider training your dog, take the time to research the appropriate trainer as well as the appropriate course. SouthPaw Training has the most comprehensive obedience class. Find out what will best suit both you and your dog. We strive to make your training the best we can and won't stop until we succeed.
Certified Master Trainer, Barbara Day, has 35 years of experience in dog training and education, an exhibition in obedience, field, narcotics scent detection and confirmation and recognizes the importance of education for each dog. It took 15 years of detailing and writing what can be a book to fall back on in a class or read and train on your own. In 2021 the "Give your Dog a New Leash on Life" by Barbara Day, will be in print and for sale as a hardbound book. This is the same book that has been used for years in our classes. Thanks to Deidre Tomkins she has illustrated the book to allow you to understand the training - step by step.
