New Remote Support Virtual Classes!
The Arc of Plymouth and Upper Cape Cod is proud to be introducing 2 new remote support virtual classes to our calendar! We’ve been working hard to ensure participants have a wide variety of virtual classes to choose from to satisfy interest in a number of topics and help with skill acquisition in many areas,
Beginning Monday, May 11th, participants will have the opportunity to take part in: “Anything Is Pawsible - Canine Classes” or “Dave’s Dugout.”
Anything Is Pawsible - Canine Classes
Anything is Pawsible - Canine Classes will be a 6-week course focused on our best furry friends - dogs! The facilitator is Melissa Viera, also known as "MJ.” MJ is the owner of pet training academy and grooming salon, "MJ's Pet Training Academy," located in Acushnet, Massachusetts. Being involved with dogs since childhood, she has developed a positive approach to working with dogs and people, which students will find motivational.
Melissa holds a diploma in Dog Obedience Instruction, and is a member of various organizations including the Association of Pet Dog Trainers and International Companion Animal Network. She is a Canine Good Citizen and Temperament Test Evaluator, as well as the developer of Positive Groomer. She enjoys all areas of dog training from sports and tricks, to grooming rehabilitation.
Each week, Melissa will cover a different topic related to dogs and pet ownership. Participants who attend all 6 classes will receive a certificate of completion!
Class will take every Monday from 10-11am.
