This is a fun, 4 week instructional class that teaches manners, public safety and obedience to dogs and owners wishing to have their dogs Therapy Certified. Dogs and handlers will receive therapy ID's and therapy privileges at local approved nursing homes and childcare facilities.

Dogs Registered for TCC must be 6 months of age or older, fully vaccinated, social, 100% non-aggressive and housetrained. They must also have had a basic obedience class somewhere (i.e., the shelter, PetSmart, through other local trainers, etc.), and must know and routinely perform basic obedience behaviors. (Dogs will be assessed for obedience and temperament at the first class).

For more information and to register, please call 540-652-1944, or call the shelter at (540)434-5270 and ask for Sarah. Registration is $120 per dog and includes all training material and ID badges. 15% of the proceeds of this class will be donated back to the SPCA.
