Do any of these sound like your dog? If so, you and your dog should attend our seminar with award winning behaviorist/trainer Chris Fraize from Canine Solutions Training Services.  

Chris has over 20 years of dog training and dog handling and canine rehabilitation experience. He has been featured on several  TV and Radio programs including Animal Planet, WJBQ Radio, and The National Geographic Channel. Chris has also written articles on canine behavior and behavior rehabilitation, training and Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) for Dog Insight Magazine and Dog Sports Magazine.

He is a Certified decoy (the bad guy that gets bitten) for the National Association of Protection Dogs, K-9 Pro Sports, National Working Dog Association and winner of the 2000 Dog Sports Open Magazine Decoy competition.  In addition he conducts bite prevention seminars for the Animal Control Officers of New England, Maine Safety Council, Central Maine Power, Local Fire Departments and many more organizations.  Chris was honored by the Working Dog Foundation and the New Hampshire Police K-9 Academy with the Chairman's Award for outstanding service.

Chris has competed and placed in obedience trials, personal protection trials, weight pull competitions, catch work, agility, herding and many other dog sports competitions all over the United States.

This is a great opportunity to learn how unwanted behaviors can be corrected.  This will be a small group so you will experience the behavior and corrections of other dogs, and also receive one on one behavior guidance with your dog.

The seminar will be held at RiverDog, 321 Somerville Ave., Somerville MA on Sunday, March 2, 2014 from 9:00am until 4:00pm. A light lunch and refreshments will be served.

Cost for the seminar is $150.00 per dog (2 person max per dog)  and space is very limited, so reserve your space now . If you wish to attend without a dog the cost is $100.00 per person.

Call us at 857-998-3343 to register as space is limited!
