About ABQ Bark University

What they offer

Services

New dog integration helps a newly adopted dog settle into the family. Behavior problem solving works on issues such as reactivity and fear, with sessions held where the behavior happens. Beginner foundations teaches sit, down, stay and more, and puppy foundations adds potty training and basic manners. A five-week group class covers leash technique and basic skills around other dogs and distractions.

Approach

Training uses only positive techniques and teaches owners to communicate with their dogs, not just the dog to obey.
