Instructor: Victoria Gideon, KPA-CTP, CPDT-KA, TAGteach, Fear Free Certified Professional Trainer, Behavior Works LLA designation, Family Dog Dogs and Storks, Dogs and Toddlers Licensed

THE DATES LISTED ARE FOR  2021

This class is Part 2 of the Truffle Puppy PreSchool for puppies under 5 months old.

In this class we will be focusing on the following:

• Creating confidence and bravery with novel items in the forest
• Leading the charge
• Playing finding games- get that nose working!
• Bend and stretch – how to keep your puppy in shape, but not overdo it
• Paw work
• Nose targeting
• Creating value around your puppy finding you– the most wonderful thing ever!
• Continuing building on lessons from Puppy PreSchool 1

Upon passing Truffle Rangers Mighty Pups, you will then move into Foundations 1, where your puppy, now a teenager, will have all the basics installed to begin working on learning odor and how to locate it. You will be well set up and well on your way to truffle hunting.  Within 12 weeks you’ll have completed Foundations 1, Foundations 2, and intermediate truffle hunting, when then, your puppy should be ready for our pre-hunt course where instructors will take you into the forest and hide real truffles for you to find and work on moving you into an actual truffle field.  In our Advanced classes, held during truffle season, our instructors will take you to Wild Truffle forests that you will be working in to find your first truffles! You will learn to work with precision and duration and be bringing home lovely truffles found by your Truffle Rangers Mighty Pup!

We look forward to meeting you and helping you raise the next generation of FABULOUS positive reinforced Truffle Dogs!
