Luna, a one and a half year old lab mix, knows how to sit, stay, lie down and walk on a loose leash. All of these skills where "given" to her by her Pets LifeLine trainer and volunteers, who have worked with her since she was a puppy when she was thrown over the Pet's LifeLine fence and orphaned.
Pet' LifeLine trainer and volunteers teach dogs like Luna manners so they are "adoptable."
Teaching dogs to walk on a loose leash is easy using a gentle leader "collar" that fits over the muzzle and across the cheeks. Dog walkers can gently redirect the dog; so that they learn to pay attention to the person they are walking with rather than dragging them down the sidewalk.
Pet's LifeLine believes owning a dog is a responsibility that includes education for both owners and their dogs. Owners are encouraged to take classes with their dogs as a part of life-long learning.
In person, Luna is a high energy cutie.
