News: Dog training for NYC pups *
* This is a paid sponsored post.
With all the delicious coats and sweaters, fine tooled leather collars and leashes, crystal dog bowls and more that you're collecting around your house, it's easy to forget that our pups are, indeed (perish the thought!) animals, and they need to be taught how to behave appropriately both in our homes and in the world around us. And that's never more true than in Manhattan, where there are more than a quarter of a million dogs taking up residence - that's an awful lot of dogs for a small island! Luckily, help is available from Petaholics. Trained by Steve Diller, one of the top dog trainers in the country, Petaholics offers several different training programs based on positive reinforcement to help your dog succeed. In-home private lessons (including the whole family!) can be a godsend, but they also have more social programs as well: puppy playgroups, where your dog is supervised by a dog trainer and taught how to socialize, and also group classes with a focus on basic commands such as Sit, Down (essential for those mid-to-large sized dogs!), Stay, Come, Heel, and most importantly for their digestive health, Leave It. Petaholics also offers phone consultations and pre-puppy counselling for newbies to the dog-eat-dog world of puppy ownership.
