Yooper Paws of Love and Cindy Campbell Dog Training are again partnering to bring you another Medical Alert Workgroup to teach you how to train your Service Dog to do Medical Alerts for a wide variety of medical disabilities that present with behavior based indicators of a need for action. This is wide range of medical conditions from seizures to psych issues and so much in between. We will be focusing on training a specific alert behavior the dog can do to let their human know a medical issue is about to happen based on the dog seeing (or hearing) a certain triggering behavior.
This workgroup will meet for 6 Zoom based sessions beginning Monday, May 18th and taking place every other Monday night for the next 12 weeks. It's not mandatory to participate in the Zoom meeting as each meeting will be recorded and a replay made available. But it's definitely more beneficial for you to participate live and ask your questions during the Zoom meeting.
We will also be using our +R SD Task group on Facebook as a platform for group communication between Zoom meetings and can start a Facebook Messenger Chat for those in the workgroup that want meeting reminders and help with the assigned homework. Yes! There will be homework! After each Zoom you will have 1 or 2 actions to do with your dog in the training process. These should take you less then 5 minutes a day, but are best if you can do them daily and why we meet every other week so you have time to build up your SD team between the Zoom Meetings.
The cost of this class is $75, which is an awesome deal considering all the information and support we offer to all the workgroup participants! If you'd like to register, please fill out the form below. You will receive an email with payment options once your registration has been processed and you have been approved as a participant. For this to be successful, we must keep the Workgroup small and therefore we ask that you only participate if you have already have a Service Dog or Service Dog in Training that is at least 1 yr old or older and that you have been training together as a team for at least 6 months.
Thank you for registering!
You will receive an email once we process your registration. Feel free to reach out to yooperpaws@gmail.com if you have any additional questions.
