Before you Begin
Enrichment Group is a fantastic program for dogs who get overwhelmed or overstimulated in a larger group setting, but all dogs can benefit from additional Enrichment! Because of the smaller group sizes in this program, we are able to give your dog the attention and help they need to better navigate social situations, while getting a little extra training in! The first half of the session is training time, dogs may participate in basic obedience games, agility courses, treadmill work, and body awareness exercises. The second half of each session is a carefully managed social, the small group size allows the trainers to give each dog additional guidance to build confidence for the timid dog and help the overexcited dog learn to slow down.
It is recommended to participate in 4 sessions minimum for your dog to get the most out of their time with us, but most dogs are happy to continue in this program for years!
Enrichment is offered Saturdays at the Alberta location.
