Pet Sitting
Leash Training Group Class
September 6, 2025

$20 minimum deposit

Does your dog pull, lunge, or get easily distracted? Mastering loose leash walking is one of the most challenging but rewarding skills you can teach your dog.

Join Jake Daley (Daley Dog Essentials) and trainer Alyssa Singh (@pawsnheels) for our group leash training workshop. This hands-on class will teach you the foundational skills of loose leash walking—from using markers to building towards a perfect Heel command. You'll learn how to keep your dog engaged and focused on you, turning stressful walks into calm, enjoyable outings. We'll also provide one-on-one troubleshooting to help with your dog's specific challenges.

This workshop is a fantastic opportunity to get personalized training in a fun group setting. Work with experienced trainers, build a stronger bond with your dog, and connect with other owners who share the same goals.

Restrictions
To ensure a safe and positive training environment for everyone:

  • No unvaccinated dogs.

About us

At Daley Dog Essentials, we believe that every dog deserves the chance to thrive in our human-centered world. While society wasn’t built with dogs in mind, we have a responsibility to ensure they can navigate it safely and happily. That’s why we focus on teaching the essential skills every dog needs—like recall, loose leash walking, sit-stay, down-stay, and more. These foundational behaviors are not just about obedience but about giving dogs and their owners the freedom to enjoy life together while respecting the responsibilities that freedom entails. Whether you’re looking to build a stronger bond with your dog or simply want a well-behaved companion to take anywhere, we’re here to make it easier for both of you to succeed.
