Starting Nov. 16, Dr. Carl Oguss of the East Hawaii Dog Psychology Center will teach a second free class on weekends in Hilo.
The new class is scheduled Saturdays at a time to be determined by those who register, and the Sunday class for everyone will continue to meet each week from 2-4 p.m. There is no cost for either class, but paid individual instruction is available, if desired.
Service Saturdays will help you prepare your dog to become a certified service animal, able to assist you anywhere you go, and allowed to fly for free at your side. Oguss also will train therapy dogs to do visitations and bring joy to people in hospice, adult day care centers, veterans centers, hospitals, schools, etc.
Social Sundays focus on improving your dog’s social skills, giving them a fun experience with other dogs and solving any behavioral problems your dog might have. A group swim sometimes is included at the end of class.
