Our first Field Trip Class on 3/14/09 was a huge success. In addition to visiting parks such as the one pictured below our dogs
had the many challenges of shopping centers. They practiced their manners around distractions such as traffic, store doors automatically opening, adults and children moving quickly, rolling grocery shopping carts and even riding in an elevator.
