You are encouraged to pay by check. Mailing address will be included on your registration receipt (via email - check your spam). 

If you need to change your plans/class, please call MDI Adult Ed first, especially if you want to transfer to a different class. 

Do you have a teenage dog who is familiar with the basics (sit, down, stay, come), but needs help learning to stay focused around distractions? Does she need help with polite greetings and not jumping on others?

This class will help you build the communication skills to work together in new and exciting scenarios and helping your dog learn settle when they’re excited. You and your dog will be introduced to games that work with rather than against their teenage energy, while building self-control.

This class will meet with 3-4 dogs who are five months and older, giving your instructor opportunities to address concerns for all students, give each team individual attention, and help you progress further in a lower-stress environment for both people and dogs.

The first week is a humans only orientation so you will NOT bring your dog with you.
