Halfway Hounds and Edgewater Community Center are sponsoring a free seminar on techniques for training and walking your dog. Dog Behaviorist, Carl Zive, will teach you how to get your dog to walk on a leash, cooperate, stop pulling and follow rather than lead.
Find out how to correct other behavior issues like nipping, dominance, jumping, pulling and lunging, greeting people who come in the door. The thirty-minute seminar is followed by a question and answer period to provide guidance on any dog issue.
Topics include:

Halfway Hounds is a Park Ridge, NJ based canine rescue group. Halfway Hounds’ mission is to give homeless dogs a new leash on life by offering them the obedience training, behavior modification and emotional rehabilitation they need to become adoptable pets.
Halfway Hounds assists potentially adoptable dogs who have been owner surrendered or can no longer stay at a shelter. Our program provides every dog with a foster home and a customized training program to prepare them for adoption. In addition, new pet owners receive a behavior assessment report on the dog, free or discounted obedience training and follow-up visits and calls from a trainer.
Halfway Hounds is a volunteered based non-profit organization and a recognized 501(c)3. We need donations, volunteers and foster homes.
