Freedom Program

**BEST SELLER** and for a reason.

Program Overview:

Get an education you and your dog can actually do stuff with! Be able to take your dog to all the places you wish you could go to without the embarrassment of bad behavior. Walk politely thru crowded tourist spots, take them off leash at the park for fetch or safely on hikes for them to run and sniff and do all the dog things they want to do, all the while being able to call them back to you immediately should someone else happen along the trail. No more 'you can't catch me' in the back yard, pulling you down the sidewalk on walks or reactivity when you're trying to enjoy some outdoor dining at the brewery or chaos every time someone comes over for a visit. This program gives you the ability to have the life you want with your dog, your lifelong friend.
