This class is appropriate for any age of dog, it takes you through the progressions of Justine’s 8 week old border collie “Revival”. From 8 weeks to 4 months of age you will cover all things foundations, so many of these skills and games are the building blocks for a really strong understanding of verbals, self control and relationship building.
