Wednesday Nights: FREE Dog Training!

  • Bartlett Arboretum 151 Brookdale Road Stamford, CT, 06903 United States (map)

Love your dog but feeling the stress because he/she is not trained?

Free Weekly Dog Training continues each Wednesday, 6:30 - 7:30 pm Bartlett Arboretum, Stamford, CT 

This is an outdoor group class so dress for the weather. Class is held in the large parking lot.

Attendees please be reminded: Keep the 6 foot rule - measure with the leash & leave good space. Please respect and do not touch another person's dog.

First timers: Please have your dog outfitted with a "martingale" style collar and a 6-foot standard lead (no flexible leashes please) Bring your dog's current rabies vaccination record which can be obtained from your vet's office. This is the printed certificate - not the metal tag. This is needed for your first day registration information.

A martingale collar. Can be purchased at any pet supply store or online. Those with a snap clip closure are easiest to put on.

Two nonprofits, OPIN & the Bartlett Arboretum, join together as a community, offering:  FREE Dog Training with Trainer Rob Mullin of K9Wizard & Co. 

OPIN is pleased to announce this partnership with the Bartlett Arboretum; without their help we couldn't offer this service year round. Classes are open to everyone and are held every Wednesday night (6:30-7:30 pm) at the Bartlett Arboretum located at 151 Brookdale Road in North Stamford (map) (Silver Education Building-lower back entrance in cold and in inclement weather and outdoors on the Great Lawn in nice weather). Your dog will learn the basics: to walk nicely on a leash, to sit, stay, down, and to interact positively in the presence of other dogs.

Donations are always welcomed.
