Mind Your Own Business (MYOB): Help for the highly distracted dog!
2025-11-09 13:00 - 16:00 | Annex
Help your dog stay cool, calm, and focused—no matter what’s going on around them!
Does your dog lose focus when food, people, or other dogs are nearby? Do distractions make being “out and about” with your dog a challenge? The Mind Your Own Business seminar is designed to help you and your dog build self-control and confidence in the face of real-world distractions.
In this engaging 3-hour working seminar, you’ll learn how to:

Understand what makes certain distractions so tough for your dog
Set up training scenarios that set your team up for success
Gradually increase difficulty with changes in distance, movement, and intensity
Practice key skills to build tolerance to distractions using exercises like recalls, loose-leash walking, and other known behaviors—both moving and stationary

This seminar is perfect for distractible dogs who need help tuning out the world and focusing on their handler. It may also be appropriate for some reactive dogs (please contact us if you’re unsure). Not suitable for aggressive dogs. Owners of highly reactive dogs are welcome to audit without their dog.
What to bring: A crate (cover if needed), small treats and/or toys (should be hand-held toys, can make noise), collar/harness and leash. A hands-free leash is highly recommended.
Join us and discover how to turn distractions into opportunities for success—one calm, confident repetition at a time!
10 working spots available: $80 members, $100 non-members
Unlimited audit spots: $25 members, $35 non-members
