Pack to Basics: The Wave of the Future

 

One of the biggest problems facing suburban and urban canines is the lack of proper socialization. Behaviorists and trainers have been promoting puppy socialization classes for years, and many people take advantage of those classes where they are offered. It is great that people socialize their puppies, but all too often that is the extent of socialization their dog gets. Sure they may have a few dogs at home, or maybe their dog even gets to play with a couple of neighborhood dogs once in a while, but for the most part, the dog lives in relative isolation from other dogs.

 
 
The importance of socialization remains after the puppy socialization classes have ended. The issue goes deeper than simply learning how to behave around other dogs. Regular socialization gives dogs the opportunity to exist in their most natural state: in the company of other dogs. This is incredibly therapeutic for dogs, lowering their overall stress level as well as lowering stress specifically related to other dogs. In addition it has been proven effective (in conjunction with obedience training) for reducing or eliminating certain types of aggression.  Recognizing this need, Chad Mackin, our director of training developed the Pack to Basics format, to fill this need.  Pack to Basics is an advanced socialization solution that is suited for all but the most aggressive dogs.  

Pack to Basics type socialization is becoming one of the fastest growing ideas among results oriented dog trainers everywhere. With virtually no formal information available, Chad Mackin is one of the most sought after voices among those professionals seeking to start socialization programs.

At A+ Dog Obedience we believe that providing this experience for our community is one of the most important things we can do. Therefore we offer this program at no cost to all who are interested. However, space is limited for each session, and we give top priority to those who are currently enrolled in one of our training programs. As the community responds to this program we may be opening more classes, however, for the time being socialization periods immediately follow our Basic Obedience Group Classes.
