Life with a New Rescue Dog

Have you recently adopted a dog from a rescue or shelter? Are you planning to adopt and want to be fully prepared? The transition into a new home can be stressful for a dog. It takes time to adjust to unfamiliar environments and routines, and to establish trusting relationships. Join us for a 2-hour session where you will learn how best to support your new dog and build a strong foundation for years of friendship!

Led by Certified Trainer and Behavior Consultant MarLee Thompson (CDBC, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, SDC), this workshop will cover:

Proactive management - how to set your new dog up for success in your home
Decompression time - what it is and why it matters
Introductions to new people, places, and other dogs
Humane and effective strategies for potty training, crate training, and reducing unwanted behaviors
Top 3 training skills for a new dog

This is a human-only workshop. Please leave your dog safely at home. There will be a live demonstration with a PAWS dog.
