What to Expect from our Day School Program
- Upon completion of preliminary integration, your dog will become a student of FML attending a minimum of 1 day a week enrichment course on a predetermined day that compliments your dog’s skill set and personality.

- Daily focus on reliable execution of commands and appropriate behaviors
- Learn to socialize, play, diffuse, and integrate with dogs while building personal relationships at their discretion
- Extensive outdoor access to increase confidence and exposure to the natural environment with a focus on distraction habituation
- Working with multiple handlers to learn generalization of every command, drill, or exercise all while playing and interacting with others and the environment
