🐾 Healing Your Heeling Seminar Recap 🐾

We had an incredible time at the “Healing Your Heeling” seminar with the amazing dog trainer, Matthew Twitty from Start to Finish Dog Training! 🙌

Matthew shared so many valuable insights and practical techniques that will help us all improve our dogs' heeling skills and strengthen the bond with our furry companions. We also dove into the foundations of Open and Utility exercises, gaining a deeper understanding of how to set our dogs up for success in these advanced obedience skills. From understanding the mechanics of heeling to effective training exercises, it was truly an educational experience for everyone involved. 🐶✨

A big THANK YOU to Matthew for generously sharing your expertise and knowledge with us. We’re excited to put what we learned into practice and continue building positive training experiences with our dogs. 💡

If you missed this seminar, stay tuned for more events like this in the future! 📅
