KANINE KAMP 4 KIDS Basic Obedience Class for Canines
Are your kids begging you to let them get a dog? Are they promising to take care of it forever? Are you reluctant to believe them because you know what it takes to care for a dog and they don't? Let us help your kids discover if they are really ready for the responsibility! In our Kanine Kamp 4 Kids each child adopts an on-site dog for the camp session. These dogs are children friendly and already have responsible owners - your child will know that the dog they choose belongs to someone else and is happy in their home. Just to reassure you - these dogs are not up for adoption and are available just to help your child understand responsible dog ownership and the commitment it takes to care for a dog. Your child will have to feed, water, play with and clean up after the chosen dog (apropriate clean up tools are provided). They will learn the importance of grooming a dog and basic grooming techniques (no scissors, clippers, or nippers will be used), insuring it's proper exercise, and how to keep it safe from harm. Your child will learn how to offer proper training, correction and reward to a dog, as well as, what to do in the presence of an unknown dog. A visit from a veterinarian will teach them the importance of good nutrition for dogs and the three things a responsible dog owner must do to maintain a dog's health. In each camp session all materials are provided for both kids and dogs. Each session is held in a climate controlled facillity and concludes with a meal and discussion. Each session is limited to ten participants. Sessions meet on Saturdays from 9am - 1pm and Sundays from 1pm - 5pm. Cost is $30 per child. Contact numbers for more information and registration are 757-896-2275 and 757-817-8337. Sessions begin January 9th and 10th.
