Loose Leash Walking

Learn how to train your dog to walk with a loose leash

---

About the Class

Tired of being dragged down the sidewalk? Ready to actually enjoy your walks again? 

Our Loose Leash Walking Workshop teaches practical, science-based skills to help your dog walk calmly beside you — even around real-world distractions. 

In this class, you’ll learn how to: 

• reduce pulling by playing fun games you can use anywhere
• build your bond with your dog
• increase engagement and check-ins 
• navigate common distractions
• reinforce calm walking behavior
• build leash manners using positive, reward-based methods 

Perfect for dogs who pull, struggle to focus outside, or become overstimulated on walks. You’ll leave with clear techniques you can use on every outing — whether you’re heading around the block or to your favorite trail. Because walks should feel connected, calm, and confident — not exhausting. 

This class is for humans only-please leave your dog at home.  

This class is great for dogs of all ages, including puppies who aren’t pulling yet. 

Please reach out to the behavior department if you are interested in bringing your child as well.
