Health and Masking Updates
(previously Corona Virus/Covid-19 Update Page)

1/3/26

I guess its a good thing this page hasn't needed to be updated in over 2 years. Since the corona virus pandemic, much has changed. Many health threats are less, while we are still worried about others.

The flu and many new strains of other illnesses are still quite concerning. Frankly, those of you who know me realize that even the common cold may put you at risk of being sprayed with Lysol at ABC.

We will ask you to please bring masks to class in case we decide to ask you to wear them. We must take into account individual risk factors, including immuno-compromised status of some clients or staff

As we say, there is no room in dog training for embarrasment, so please feel free to let us know if you prefer masking in your class. Not a big deal if you do.

For everyone's well-being, we will insist that anyone attending classes is NOT coughing, sneezing or in any way sick.

Class sizes:  staying limited for social distancing, but we will try to keep no more than 4-5 dogs per new classes.  Still 1-2 handlers per dog. 

Masks:  Please bring masks again for now, wearing them will be enforced as we deem prudent

Classes OfferedBeginner and Puppy Kindergarten still available with the entire year of start dates posted at abcobedience.com.
