Course Objective:

Welcome to the KAS Adolescent Manners course. This class will cover the skills you will need to survive your dog’s adolescent phase and help them grow into a mature well-adjusted adult. Our class program models that of the Pet Dog Ambassador program & Canine Good Citizen criteria. Each week will build on the previous week as we teach you to teach your dog.

After completing this class you and your dog will build a communication baseline that will carry you through this challenging phase of dog development. This will also give you and your dog the tools you need to communicate effectively with each other.
