Doggie Etiquette
At Myrtle Beach State Park
This class will teach you to help your dog be their best self in social situations and while relaxing at home. Each class will focus on a core set of skills to help your dog with polite social habits. We will use positive reinforcement and engaging activities to help our dogs learn exceptional manners and make social interactions more relaxing for all involved. This is a series of four individual classes that can stand alone or be combined.
Our CBCC-KA/CPDT-KA instructor will provide personalized guidance, ensuring each dog progresses at their own pace.
Basic obedience skills recommended but not required. A dog with any sign of a communicable disease or aggression will not be admitted. Dog owners must sign a SCPRT liability waiver. Proof of rabies and DHLP vaccine required.
