Service Description
Join us for a fun, structured walk at the Brainerd Arboretum trailhead (weather permitting) designed to strengthen your dog’s obedience and leash skills in a real-world setting. This class is open to dogs who have completed Beginner Good Dog or Beginner Obedience. We will practice core skills like loose-leash walking, about turns, left turns, sits, downs, and stays while walking alongside other dogs. Learn to keep your dog focused and responsive in a group environment, all while enjoying fresh air and exercise.
