Urban Dog will focus on differentiating verbal cues from hand signals, as well as adding distractions, distance and duration to all behaviors learned in prerequisite classes. New positional cues (side, front) for known behaviors will be taught, as well as walking, sits and downs. Urban Dog also prepares you and your dog for the AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test, if you wish to pursue, with exercises focused on calm and obedient behaviors while approaching people and dogs.
