Group Classes
Beginner Classes:
Did you just bring home a new dog from the local shelter? Decided, "I'd like to communicate with my dog better."? Or simply looking for something new and fun to experience with your furry friend? Then this is the class for you!
Over these 6 weeks you and your dog or puppy will learn the basics of obedience/manners, covering such behaviors as sit, down, stay, recall (come when called) and more! Not only will we make sure to cover the basics of obedience but also work on common behavior problems such as - counter surfing (stealing things off the counter) - dumpster diving (digging into and consequently spilling the trash everywhere) - jumping on guests to greet them - and more!
Let's open the lines of communication and teach that lovable canine what is acceptable in a human household so we can form an incredible bond and relationship that everyone will be saying "#relationshipgoals" !

Intermediate Classes:
Time to take our training to the next level! We've got our basic cues down- like sit, stay, recall, down, etc. Now it's time for us to sharpen our skills with our best friends and get quicker responses, longer stays, and even work our Free Lead Walking into a Heel for times when we will want our dogs walking right by us!
Over these 6 weeks we will learn Heel, how to get longer and further stays, build better more solid responses in highly distracting environments to all of our cues learned in Beginner course, and continue strengthening our relationship with our canine companions! It's time to begin fading our reliance on treats for our solid cues and use our rewards for more difficult behaviors.
Everything taught through this course is to lead to the ability to complete the AKC CGC (Canine Good Citizen) test.
Everything taught in this class is building on what was learned in Beginner course-prerequisites are required: sit, down, stay, recall, leave it and drop it.
You do not have to be an expert in these cues-I ask for a beginner level response and the basic foundation to be built in order for us to continue making them stronger.
