Therapy Dog Prep (dogs over 4 months old)
Have a friendly, people-loving dog? Our Therapy Dog Class helps dogs and handlers build the calm, confident skills needed for therapy work in real-world settings. We focus on polite greetings, loose-leash walking, settling calmly, impulse control, and rock-solid basic manners—all taught using positive reinforcement.
Dogs will practice gentle handling and exposure to common therapy-dog environments, including mobility aids, medical equipment, and new sights and sounds. The class wraps up with a special graduation visit at a local nursing home, where teams get to put their skills to meaningful use.
This 5-week series is $150. Classes meet once a week for 45 minutes, with up to two people per dog. Perfect for teams looking to give back, build confidence, and strengthen their bond through purposeful training.
March 2026 Class Starts:
Monday, March 9th at 7:10pm
Held at Pet Supplies Plus in Monona, WI
*The March class is a CGC/Therapy Dog Combo Class. The CGC Test will be held on the 5th week of class, and the Therapy Dog Graduation at a nursing home will be held on April 14th
