The course will serve as an opportunity for local kids to teach their family pets how to behave and do tricks, while interacting positively with a police officer. The training course consists of five one-hour sessions and will meet at 7 p.m. on Tuesday nights. Participants will teach their dogs sit, down, stay, to come when called, and to walk on a leash without pulling. Classes will be held at the Rogers Public Library, located at 711 S. Dixieland Road in Rogers. Human participants must be ages 10 through 17, while their canine counterparts must be at least six months old.
Class size is limited and preregistration is required.
Preference will be given to families who have adopted their dogs from the Rogers City Animal Shelter. There is no charge for this program.
