WHY STUDY WITH US?
At Dog Potential Unleashed, we celebrate differences. Our programs are designed to be accessible to people, no matter how they learn. Each lesson is on video, in writing, and in pictures. Every student can post videos, ask questions, and receive individualized assistance, either in the public forum, or if they are more comfortable, through private communication. We have live Zoom sessions too, for lively conversation. Each class has six months access to this individualized help. Plus, all lessons and videos are fully downloadable, so you have the material forever.
More than that, DPU classes teach things you won’t find in other classes.
A four week foray into fun. Teach your dog to take her own selfies, scratch her ear, lean against a wall, and yawn on cue. And that’s just some of what she and you will learn!
Figuring out these skills together will invite you to look at learning and teaching in a different way, having a lot of fun in the process.
HOLD ON is the class that teaches your dog to hold things, even if you’ve never been successful before. Whether you want to take cute pictures of your dog holding an easter basket, or you want to earn advanced obedience titles, holding things is a great skill.
SO FETCHING is the next step, teaching your dog to not only hold, but to bring things to you, from a thrown dumbbell to a dropped remote. Having a dog who retrieves is fun for earning titles, but also SO useful for the klutzy among us who are constantly having to pick things up!
Teaches lots of tricks and skills, while delving into how I train my animal actors, and how those skills are useful for dogs regardless of what their future career might be. As and added bonus, this class will teach you how to break down the teaching process so that you can create a plan and teach your dog any trick or skill you can imagine.
Are the ultimate foundation for puppies regardless of what their future holds. Designed with agility and other sport puppies in mind, these two classes (also available together as a discounted bundle) prepare puppies to be focused, engaged and happy dogs who love training and working with their human teammates.
For people on a smaller budget, we also offer DIY courses. These courses do not have individualized feedback, but you are invited to participate in our Zoom sessions.
Teaching discrete skills before the dog understands that paying attention is important is a bit like putting the cart before the horse. A dog who understands that it’s wonderful to be focused on their handler and have self control is a joy to work and is much less stressed themselves. This class is a great way to start on that journey.
