Calm Canine Park & Patio Workshop

Whether you’re looking to set your dog up for success before the warm weather arrives, have a young dog who needs guidance in public spaces, or struggle with a dog who just can’t seem to settle, this course is for you. If you want to enjoy patios, parks, and outdoor spaces without worrying about leash-pulling, overexcitement, or distractions, you’re in the right place.

Calm Canine Park & Patio is a three-week training course designed to help you and your dog build confidence, engagement, and relaxation skills in real-world settings. Through structured training in a small group environment, you'll learn how to create a calm, well-mannered companion ready to enjoy public outings with you.

What to Expect

Each week, we’ll focus on foundational public manners, leash skills, and engagement, gradually increasing distractions and real-world challenges. Dogs will practice staying engaged, ignoring common distractions, and remaining calm in social settings. The course will conclude with a patio-style simulation, reinforcing all the skills learned in a practical, real-life setup.

By the end of the course, your dog will have a stronger foundation for staying engaged and relaxed in public spaces, setting you up on your way to enjoy stress-free outings together.
