CLASS PROGRESSION
In our efforts to keep our classes small enough to benefit all those training in those classes, the following change has been recently approved by the Board.
- If there is more than one class held during the week at a particular level, a member may only attend one of the classes each week. The exception is if they have two dogs working at the same level, then they may attend an additional class.
KENNEL COUGH
To keep the risk as low as possible for all the dogs that come into the building at SDTC the following recommendations are offered. This applies to members and to non-members taking paid classes.
- Any dog affected by bordetella (kennel cough) or any other contagious respiratory illness must not be brought into the building for two weeks after they stop coughing. Also, please inform the Training Director (Training@SuburbanDogTraining.com) that your dog is ill.
- Any dogs living in the same household as affected dogs but not showing symptoms may not be brought into the building until two weeks after the affected dog stops coughing.
- In the event of an outbreak other than one or two isolated incidences, the building will be closed for a minimum of one week for cleaning and disinfecting.
CRATE USAGE
The common crates in the building may be used by all members. However, members must clean a crate each time they use it. Clorox wipes are available to wipe out the inside of the crate. You may alternatively spray with Lysol and wipe out with paper towels. Yes, you will have to crawl into the crate to adequately clean it.
NOTE: During the Covid pandemic, the training policy is one handler-one dog, so the use of crates is not necessary.
