Professional dog trainer Bob Brunell "Sit Means Sit" 561-543-5583 will be at the shelter every other Saturday from 8:30 AM - 9:30 AM.
This advanced hands-on dog training session is designed specifically for experienced volunteers ready to deepen their expertise and refine their skills. Building on foundational techniques, participants will engage with #4 & #5 rated dogs where behavioral modification strategies are most important. Volunteers will work closely with a professional dog trainer, practicing techniques such as redirecting reactive behaviors, leash etiquette with high-energy dogs, and stopping bad habits. Emphasis is placed on observation, adaptability, and collaboration, ensuring volunteers can tailor their approach to individual dogs’ needs. By the end of the session, experienced volunteers will be equipped with advanced tools and insight to mentor others and contribute meaningfully to the ongoing development and well-being of the dogs in their care.
