Leadership Essentials

The Leadership Essentials package consists of three in-depth lessons designed to help you establish a strong leadership foundation with your dog using the AFDT leadership techniques. This package is perfect for early puppies (8-12 weeks of age), rescues, or adult dogs that may require additional help in building trust and respect. In these sessions, we focus on structured leash walks to help your dog learn to walk calmly and under control, strengthening your leadership. You’ll also learn how to establish a consistent daily schedule and feeding routine, which are crucial in setting boundaries and reinforcing your leadership role. Impulse control exercises are taught to help your dog manage excitement and frustration, promoting better behavior in everyday situations. Calming exercises are also incorporated into the training to help your dog remain relaxed in different environments, which is essential for a calm and well-balanced dog. These techniques ensure that you build a calm, confident, and obedient pack member who respects you as their leader. This package is an essential step towards the more advanced AFDT obedience training programs, providing a solid foundation for continued success. It is especially effective for young puppies, rescue dogs, or adult dogs that need help gaining trust and respect from their owners. Take the next step toward a well-behaved, confident dog!
