Online Classes
Benefits to Online Classes:
-
Train at your own pace, any day of the week
-
Group class times don't work for your schedule
-
Dog does not do well in group settings (extremely fearful, aggressive, reactive, etc.)
-
Train from any location
-
You learn best by being able to rewatch demonstrations as you practice
-
Everyone in the family receives the same information, so everyone can be consistent!
Our opinion: We think the best option for most people is to do both In-Person Group Classes and the Corresponding Online Group Class.
Benefits to Online & In-Person Classes:
-
Get a jump start on teaching the skills before your in-person group class starts. This helps set your dog up for even more success during the in-person class as you are not teaching a brand new skill with distractions, but rather adding distractions to known skills and sets you up for success by allowing you to absorb & digest more of the information!
-
Your dog learns to focus through the distractions of a class environment, and you learn proper mechanics that are easier taught in-person.
-
If you are absent from an in-person class due to work, or life is just too busy, you still have access to descriptive how-to's and videos to show you how to teach that week's skills.
