Covid-19 Dog Training Protocol at Alaska Dog Works

Here’s How You Can Still Get Your Dog Professionally Trained (Without Risking Contagion!) … Because Of Our Newly Developed COVID 19 Dog Training Protocol at Alaska Dog Works.

Why live with a dog that’s driving you nuts– just because of the coronavirus?

While the media chatters on and on about COVID 19, you have probably noticed one piece of advice that the talking heads tend to gloss over:

Here’s Why the Coronavirus May Be the Perfect Opportunity To Stop All of Your Dog’s Behavior Problems

It’s Okay To Go Outside, Especially With Your Dog!

According to Dr. Ruth Berggren, an infectious disease specialist at UT Health San Antonio: “You don’t need to stay cooped up inside your house all day as long as you’re being smart and cautious.”

And according to the lead trainer of Alaska Dog Works, Michele Forto, “It’s especially important during times like these that you stimulate your dog’s mind through training and play. It prevents a buildup of frustration and anxiety.” All this being said, we have come up with a Cover-19 dog training protocol at Alaska Dog Works.

Your Dog Can Sense Your Emotions

As long as you maintain at least six feet from another human (and remember to wash your hands!) … you’re going to be alright.

Calm down. You’re going to be alright. Both you and your dog. But…

… your dog shouldn’t have to suffer because of this virus.

In case you’re wondering: Dogs can’t catch the coronavirus.

Thankfully.

But even though your dog is safe, is there still a possibility that somebody (a dog trainer, for example?) carrying the coronavirus could touch your dog’s coat and then you later catch the virus when you pet your dog?

Not with our newly developed “COVID 19 Safe” dog training protocol at Alaska Dog Works.

 

We’ve been busy developing a safety protocol that allows you to continue to get your dog to listen to you, anywhere you go– without putting you in jeopardy of catching the COVID 19 coronavirus.

Our “COVID 19 Safe” Dog Training Protocol  at Alaska Dog Works Means That
Your Dog Won’t Miss Out on A Good Education!

This means that we at Alaska Dog Works can still help you stop the biting, barking, nipping, chewing, pulling on the leash, running away and pretty much every other dog behavior problem you may be dealing with during these trying times. We’re offering:

  • Evaluationsthat are done outside… where our dog trainers maintain a strict “at least six feet away” distance from you at all times. Typically, we don’t even need to handle your dog during the initial evaluation, but if we do– then we use a tie-out mechanism that you’ll easily attach your dog’s leash to– and then back away before we work with your dog.
  • “Coronavirus-Safe” pickup and drop-off for our Camp Program.Just to play it on the safe side we will meet outside your home and use the same tie-out mechanism (mentioned above) for the “hand off.’ Additionally, once we finish your dog’s “Camp” program we’ll bathe him thoroughly (just to be extra cautious) … and once bathed we only handle your dog with gloved hand.
  • All private lessons are now conducted outside.Our dog trainers will coach you through the handling exercises– while staying six feet away at all times. Additionally (and again… just to be safe!) nitrile gloves will be provided for both you and your dog trainer.
  • Virtual/Online Based One-on-One Dog Training ProgramsFor those desperate dog owners who need to play it “extra safe” (for example, if you’re in your Golden Years or you suffer from a compromised immune system) … your dog can still benefit! Zoom is a freeapp that lets anyone video chat between computers, tablets and mobile devices. (Available for both Apple IOS and Google Android). We have designed a dog training “coaching” program that allows us to work with you… without even setting foot in your home!

So instead of you and your dog lying around the house and losing your minds, the coronavirus may end up being the perfect opportunity to stop all of your dog’s behavior problems. Our Covid-19 Dog Training Protocol at Alaska Dog Works might help.
