If your dog barks, growls, or is aggressive to people or dogs, your dog is not yet eligible for the in person class. We recommend taking the ONLINE live Zoom classroom Intermediate Manners or our Growly Dog class (issues toward other dogs) or Private Training sessions (issues toward people and/or other dogs).

More about the Basic Manners class:
The Basic Dog Manners class teaches the foundations of obedience training which makes it a great class for owners who are new to Clicker Training or any training, for that matter! It’s also recommended for dogs that are getting settled into a new home and could use a refresher on their manners.
Topics include:
- Stay
- Leave it
- Loose leash walking
- Coming when called
- Troubleshoot issues like counter surfing, jumping on guests, or barking for attention
Basic Manners is a 4 lesson “series” class scheduled 1 day a week over a 4-week period (unless there are skip dates, e.g., for Holidays). Classes can’t be swapped or rescheduled because each class has a set begin and end date with content that builds from class to class.
This class includes a free dog training clicker and an instant download of our 100+ page Ahimsa Dog Training Manual. You can also purchase a hard copy at the Ahimsa Training Center. Click here for more information on our Ahimsa adult dog classes in Seattle.
