Guidelines for Children Attending Group Classes:

Adult Supervision Required: All children under the age of 16 must be accompanied and actively supervised by a responsible adult (parent or legal guardian) at all times. The supervising adult is solely responsible for the child's behavior and safety.

Appropriate Conduct:

• Quiet Observation: Children are expected to observe quietly and remain in their designated seating or standing area with their supervising adult.
• No Running or Loud Noises: Running, shouting, yelling, or making disruptive noises are strictly prohibited as they can startle dogs, interfere with training, and create safety hazards.
• Respectful Interaction with Dogs: Children should never approach or touch any dog without the explicit permission of both the dog's owner and the instructor. All interactions must be gentle and supervised.
• Staying with Guardian: For their safety and the focus of the class, children must remain by their guardian's side and not wander away from the group.

Active Participation:

• Children 7 years and older: With instructor permission and under direct adult supervision, children aged 7 and older may be invited to participate in certain exercises, such as holding treats or giving simple cues, when appropriate for the class and dog.

Disruptive Behavior:

• If a child's behavior becomes disruptive to the class, interferes with other students' learning, or compromises safety, the instructor will politely request the supervising adult to remove the child from the training area immediately.
• This may involve stepping outside for a break or, if the disruption continues, being asked to leave the class for the remainder of the session.
• Repeat instances of unmanaged disruptive behavior may result in the client being asked to switch to private lessons, which can often better accommodate families with young children, or being unable to continue in the group class.

Waiver of Liability: By bringing a child to class, the supervising adult agrees to assume all responsibility for the child's safety and behavior, and acknowledges that One Smart Dog], its instructors, and staff are not liable for any injuries or incidents involving children.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and productive learning environment for everyone!
