including appropriate response to friendly strangers and other dogs,
demonstration of the ability to stay and come, and walking politely and
under control with the handler in a variety of situations with a
variety of distractions. Notes: Pre-registration is recommended, the class size is limited to 10 dogs. Dogs come to first night of class!
