~Kids in Class
I love having children in class, they often end up being the best students I have!  However, there are many different comfort
levels regarding children and dogs.  An out of control child poses a physical danger to themselves as well as a mental (and
sometimes physical) danger to the dogs.  It is not fair to any owner to have a child frighten their dog or to not be able to hear the
instruction over a screaming child.

In order for a child to attend class:

  • Children must be able to follow directions and be physically capable of performing the tasks at hand if the child is handling
    the dog in class.
  • Children must be able to participate, watch quietly or have a separate adult in class to keep them occupied.  
  • Any dog working on a fear or aggression issue may not be handled by a child.  
  • At the instructor's discretion, a child may not be allowed to handle a dog in situations the instructor deems unsafe.
  • Children must respect the dogs and not approach any dog without permission from the dog's owner and the instructor.
  • Any child who can not follow the class rules may be asked to leave at any time.
