Stacy's Wag'N'Train

At Stacy's Wag'N'Train we focus on pets, so we teach real-world training—like polite greetings at the door, walking on a loose leash, and calmly accepting the touch of a child, vet or groomer—rather than drill obedience exercises only used in competition rings.

We teach "clicker training", an all-positive, easy-to-learn technique of telling dogs when they are doing what you want. Visit the Wag 'n' Train website, www.wagntrain.com, for Training Tips, a comprehensive listing of Bay Area doggy events, and our current class schedule, or call us at 408-978-7391.
or email Stacy. Check-out Stacey's Wag 'n' Train for class schedules.
