Showtime | Doberman Pinscher pup | Bakersfield, CA
Welcome, Showtime!
Showtime, a 7-month-old red Doberman Pinscher pup, has joined our 3-week Board & Train Program. During his stay, we’ll be helping him develop better manners, build respect, work through some challenging behaviors, and get CGC Certified.
The main goals for his training include:
Reducing resource guarding around food
Stopping his habit of eating indoor and outdoor plants
Teaching him not to jump on people
Curbing counter-surfing and grabbing items
We’re excited to guide Showtime on his journey and can’t wait to share his progress!
