We hope everyone had a great Fourth of July weekend, and that no dogs were too stressed with the fireworks!
Love My Dog Training and Training With Grace have several events coming up. We hope there is something for everyone, but if you have special requests, please send them to us.
Below is information on the following events:
* Taking it to the Streets: Polite Pooches in Public (an 8 week class)

Taking it to the Streets: Polite Pooches in Public
* Tuesdays, July 22 to September 9, 7:00-8:00 pm
* First session is at Deer Creek Animal Hospital, Southwest Littleton near C-470/Kippling. Remaining sessions will be various dog-friendly locations around the Littleton and surrounding areas.
* Cost: $150 for 8 sessions. Pre-registration is required.
* Pre-requisite: Basic Training or equivalent. Your dog must be current on all vaccinations, including Bordatella (kennel cough).
This is a new offering for Love My Dog Training and Training With Grace. This class is for those who have done the Basics and now want to get out and practice in the real world! We can't tell you how many times we hear: "He responds great at home, but as soon as we get outside. . ." If this sounds familiar, this is the class for you!
During our first session, we will choose the locations for our remaining sessions. We will look for suggestions for dog-friendly locations you would like to meet and practice your dog’s polite social skills. Maximum of 8 dogs in this class.

Dog Days at High Point

Canine Good Citizen Testing
* Sunday, July 27: 6:00-8:00 pm
* Canine's Canyon in Golden
It might be hot in the city, but it's cool up in the foothills! If your dog is a good citizen and you want the proof to back up your claim, sign up to take the Canine Good Citizen Test with us! The test itself takes about 15 minutes, but come and stick around to watch others test and be part of our crowd for the "walking through a crowd" segment of the test.
