COVID-19 PRotocol

Indoor Classes

Updated as of January 18, 2024

Our primary focus is to be able to offer in-person classes that ALL people attending feel safe.

In order to provide a safe environment for students and to protect staff, masks are recommended but not mandatory. Many of the Paus-n-Train instructors will wear a mask for their personal safety. Please support those students who NEED to wear a mask.

As mask mandates have been relaxed, we ask that you NOT attend in-person classes if you exhibit any COVID related symptoms. We strongly encourage all attendees to continue to abide by the 6 foot social distancing recommendations, if not for COVID then out of respect for the need for each individual dog to have a social safety bubble. Not all dogs enjoy other dogs running up into their space. It’s rude in the canine kingdom.

Please DO NOT let dogs visit nose to nose while on leash on the Paus-n-Train training grounds. It’s how dogs are taught to become leash aggressive. Just ask any police dog trainer, it’s how they teach the police dogs to bite.
