Dog Training Tips and Tricks - Ways to Make Dog Training Easy For You and Your Pet

• Puppy Class - Leash manners, moving through crowd, sit, stay, come, spin, proper greetings, leave it, drop it, take it, and troubleshooting as well as socialization.
  
  Beginner Class - same as puppy but for older dogs.
  
  Intermediate Class - Stay with more distractions (noises, people going by, you turning your back and walking away), come with distractions (toy on floor, people), through a hoop (and a few other tricks), increase stay time.
  
  Advanced - Canine Good Citizen stuff (like handling, brushing, greeting other dogs/people, etc), more distractions and distance, more time added to stay, drop (to belly when walking), a few more tricks.
  
  It may be different depending on the store - this is a rundown of what WE learned. They are great classes if you have the right trainer, but are not for behavior problems (aggressions, extreme fear, etc.)
