We are thrilled to announce that Jason Vasconi of Transform My Dog is bringing the Lifesaver Seminar back for the 4th time at Eva’s Play Pups’ beautiful facility in the Poconos Mountains of Pennsylvania!

This two-day, hands on workshop is designed to teach you how to run your own large field dog socialization class from start to finish. Jason has been running large field social classes for 21years and has taught this seminar across the U.S. and internationally in Ireland, Australia, and Spain.

What You’ll Learn

• How to run a large field social class from beginning to end
• Which behaviors are acceptable and which are not
• How to market your class and grow participation
• How to evaluate dogs to determine if they are good candidates for socialization
• How to compete and have fun in the Lifesaver Olympics and Head-to-Head Challenge with prizes and medals

Every spot is a working spot and we encourage you to bring your dog!

Why Large Field Socialization?

Large field socialization was originally pioneered in Spain by the late David “The Dogman” Klein and carried forward in the U.S. by the late Dick Russell of Baton Rouge.

This powerful approach helps dogs:

• Become better communicators with other dogs
• Build impulse control
• Learn how to manage their emotions
• Make better decisions in difficult moments
• Find trust, balance, and fulfillment in their daily lives

Offering an outside social class in your community is also a fantastic way to build clientele, grow your business, and create lasting results for dogs and their owners.
