Class Descriptions

Basic Obedience: This 6 week course is run on Saturdays at 1pm or Monday at 7pm. New course dates are posted on the Home page. Throughout this course, dogs and handlers work through distractions and stresses to learn the basic commands such as "sit, down, stand, wait, up, over, cross, off, right turn, left turn, and the recall." Obstacles are utilized to apply stress which builds the bond between dog and handler, build confidence in the dogs, teach proper clear, concise communication and teaches the dog to focus on the handler regardless of the situation or distractions. Cost including tax is $160. No treats or toys or bribes are used. The dogs only want to please us so by praising proper commands, the dogs are motivated to do what we ask simply because we ask them to.  We encourage the whole family to participate in the classes and children are welcome. Space in each class is limited and there are always multiple trainers and assistants on site to help. Dogs of all ages and breeds are welcome.
