full of sensory stimulation and distractions.

Bring a 6-foot nylon or leather leash and training collar of
your choice to the first class: You can borrow some of Angie's
equipment at the first class if you're not sure what is right
for you and your dog or see the Q&A section for more information
on training equipment.

Bring something to motivate your dog; praise, a toy, treats,
whichever works best and your patience. Although I find treats
or toys, an excellent way to build a foundation in dog training,
I Do Not Require that you use them. Learn more about the pros
and cons of object based rewards in the Q&A section.
