TAGteach 2 Day Certification Seminar
June 9-10, 2012

Fur-Get Me Not Dog Training School will be closed June 9-10. All classes will be cancelled as we host this seminar.

TAGteach has been used in a variety of applications including: general education classrooms, special education, sport coaching, therapy (speech, physical, occupational, behavior), occupational safety, parenting, music, customer service skills, business management skills, juvenile offenders, medical students, pilots, animal handling professionals, and more. It has been shown to:

• Quickly increase client success rate
• Instantly reduce client anxiety
• Turn nag points into “TAG points”
• Increase the ‘fun’ quotient for you and the client

This seminar uses interactive video, lecture, games and lots of hands on practice to ensure attendees gain the foundation skills needed to bring TAGteach back to their individual fields and begin using it.

Anyone with an interest in continuing education and looking for creative solutions to help in their area of expertise is welcome. Registration is required.

PAL Information Session

Fur-Get Me Not is hosing an information session for People. Animals. Love. to learn about their Pet Visit Program. As a Pet Visit team, you and your beloved dog are able to visit elderly homes, mental institutions, libraries, and elementary schools in DC, Maryland, and Virginia.

Our very own Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Manager, Maureen Dorman, is a volunteer with her dog Gibbs. She and Gibbs visit the Shirlington library on a regular basis. The kids who may otherwise have difficulty reading aloud gain confidence having Gibbs present and are able to improve their literacy. Maureen and other volunteers will be present to share their experiences and answer any questions you may have about the PAL program.

Cost is Free.

We ask that you please leave your dogs at home. This is an informational session for people only.

When: Sunday, June 24th from 2-3pm

Where: Fur-Get Me Not Dog Training School 4120 S Four Mile Run Drive Arlington

Register: to ensure there is enough seating, we ask that you email Tammy@furgetmenot.com

Fur-Get Me Not also teaches a Therapy Dog class for anyone interested or already involved in therapy work. Next class begins Tuesday, July 28 @ 8:30pm.
