Does your dog struggle with nail trims, brushing, or baths? Do you worry about future medical care like ear drops, wound care, or vet exams? Cooperative Care helps dogs become willing participants in their own care, reducing stress for both you and them. This class is designed for all dogs—whether they’re already hesitant or you simply want to set them up for success.

​

Through positive reinforcement and choice-based training, you’ll learn how to:

• Build trust and communication with your dog

• Desensitize grooming and medical tools

• Teach calm handling for vet exams

• Improve impulse control in care routines

• Help your dog opt-in to care with confidence

 

Empower your dog to feel comfortable and cooperative in handling situations—making routine care easier for everyone.
