Level 2 (Puppy / Super Dog)
If you have graduated from one of our Puppy or Super Dog classes OR you have done a beginner obedience class elsewhere and are wanting to continue to challenge both yourself and your dog to a higher level of communication, then our Level 2 class is the class for you! This is a great stepping stone to learn more advanced obedience skills to be able to live peacefully with your dog at home as well as taking him into public areas. It is also a stepping stone to advance towards our Speciality classes such as FUNAgility, Tricks, Rally and Competition Obedience where a solid obedience foundation is required.
Everyone says “But he listens at home”! When you take your dog away from home does he tend to tune out and not pay attention to you? This class teaches you how to get your dog tuned into you even when you are away from home and amongst challenging distractions.
Our level 2 training program consists of 5 one-hour in-depth classes conducted by our professional dog trainer and covers everything you need to know to build a strong relationship with your dog and help his/her development of important life skills.
My favourite part was just seeing how quick the dogs picked up on this way of training it was great to see the results in just a few weeks. The best part was the dogs and owners were having fun!
What was your favourite part of the class: I have a big smile on my face as I write this because I want to say, “Everything”. But if I had to choose it would have to be the positive reinforcement that Katrina gave for each and every job well done. It works just as well for humans as it does for dogs. (Come to think of it, she was encouraging if the job wasn’t particularly well done, too.)
The instructor, Kelly, was very helpful, very friendly, and answered all our questions. Favourite Thing: Seeing the progress of each dog from the first class to the last class.

Positive Training Methodology
TNT Training teaches using positive reinforcement and motivational methods. To help your dog understand what we are trying to teach them, we use food rewards. This method of teaching is proven to accelerate the learning process for dogs. The alternative to positive training, is to use compulsion and adversive methods and this type of training is not only old-fashioned and highly outdated, but also produces dogs that work out of fear and not because they “want” to. At TNT we want both yourselves AND your dogs to enjoy the learning and training process.
