The benefits are twofold: 1)your puppy will begin sitting calmly for attention from children and 2)your puppy will associate your children with pleasant experiences rather than negative ones (e.g., being grabbed or stepped on). If you find that your puppy is biting your childʼs fingers the child can simply drop kibble on the floor once your puppy has sat.

We will be posting the dates of our volunteer shelter dog runs as well as a few of the larger shelter events we are involved with through out the year in our Upcoming Events section on the right hand side of the page.  Our blog will feature monthly training tips from Canine Curriculum, tips on running with your dog, and random stories from our runners.

While not drastically different from our old site, we would love to hear from you, letting us know what you think.
