Join Julia to learn all about teaching your dog to come when called

Whether puppy or dog, teaching a reliable come when called is one of Julia's favorite skills to teach. There’s nothing more fun than watching your dog come flying to you when they hear their magic recall word. Not to mention how much more enjoyable it makes your walks and adventures when you can trust your dog to come back when you call. 


I'm excited to guide you how to teach your puppy/dog to come when called during a live webinar. There are 4 parts to the webinar. 


Before: One week before the webinar you'll get access to the first set of lessons, so that you can prepare and get the most of the live webinar.  


During: We’ll meet live on Zoom for about 90 min, you’ll learn how to teach a magic recall to your dog and what pitfalls to avoid along the way.


After: After the webinar you’ll get access to a full online course so that you know how to practice step by step, making sure that your dog stops ignoring you when you’re calling him outside. 


VIP Offer: And if you opt in to the VIP offer, you’ll get access to feedback on your training videos, and a follow up live call with Julia, so that you can ask her all of your questions.
