Carlton County 4-H Dog Training
Carlton County 4-H Dog Training will be held weekly on Monday nights at 6:30 p.m. at the Carlton County Fairgrounds 4-H Building. Dog training will be a 10-week class starting on May 22nd through July 31st (no class the week of July 4th). We will end with a Carlton County Dog Show on August 7th.
Supplies you will need for dog training:
6 foot leash (no flexi leads)
Flat collar (I will bring several examples of training collars they can use - no harnesses)
High value treat that can be eaten quickly
Closed toe shoes
Something to easily carry treats in (pockets or treat pouch)
Water for 4Her and dog
Poop bags
Dog IDs were due on May 15th but if your youth would still like to participate, we will need current vaccinations of Rabies and Distemper and a Veterinarian will need to fill out this Vaccination Certificate. Youth need to have completed 3rd grade and up and are currently enrolled in 4-H.
Please contact Katie if you have any questions or concern at silta006@umn.edu or 218-384-8682.
