Maybe your dog is not taking a European vacation this summer…
…and needs a summer activity.

Early summer school begins Saturday June 8, 2024 at these times.
Three Dogs Training teaches evidence based training techniques as outlined by:

Positive reinforcement dog training should be fear-free and force-free. Your dog should enjoy learning and you should enjoy teaching. I have been teaching fun and successful dog training for twenty-five years. Join us!

“A Dog Named Boo” Discussion on Dog-Eared with Lisa Davis

Lisa Davis MPH generously invited me to talk with her about A Dog Named Boo, How One Dog and One Woman Rescued Each Other – and the Lives They Transformed Along the Way

Lisa Davis brings her twenty-five years of health experience and her love of dogs together in her PodCast “Dog-Eared” to interview authors of dog related books, memoirs like A Dog Named Boo and other advice and inspirational dog-related titles.

Check out Dog-Eared and enjoy.

Pet Partners Evaluations

My next set of Pet Partner evaluations is scheduled for April 22nd.

To enroll, you will need to go to the PetPartners.org website and go through your account to your registrations. You will be able to search for evaluations in Mahopac, NY.

There are four spaces available, so enroll early.

If you have questions, contact PetPartners directly.

Here’s a peek into a portion of Boo’s last evaluation – 2012.
If you would like to be a volunteer for the evaluations (humans only), it is a great way to get a sense of what is involved in the process. Contact me to be a volunteer.

Animal Assisted Intervention and Advanced class.

The Animal Assisted Intervention and the Advanced classes have been merged because there is so much overlap.

All the skills that would normally be considered only for the Animal Assisted Interventions class should be in everyone’s toolbox as they take their dogs out into public for walks, recreation, pick up kids at the school bus, vacations, sports, etc.

Every interaction your dog has with a stranger is a moment to affect that person’s life.

  • If you have wanted to do the Advanced class to hone skills or prepare for the CGC – this is the class.
  • If you want to volunteer with your dog to do Animal Assisted Interventions – this is the class for you.
  • If you are already working your dog on Animal Assisted Intervention visits, this class will help you develop more broad handling and supporting skills.
  • If you are training your dog to do service work for you, this class will give you the tools so you can work your dog appropriately in public.

If you have questions, or are not sure if your dog is ready for this class, please email me.
