CLASS DETAILS...

• Adult Obedience and Puppy Preschool cover the basic commands (sit,
stay, come, leave it, down, drop it, etc) as well as addressing good doggie
manners (no mouthing, no jumping, housetraining). Both classes prepare your
dog for Advanced Obedience.

• Advanced Obedience Classes focus on doggie safety skills. We work to proof
their stay and come, build distance commands, stop a running dog and more.
These classes are open to dogs that have a reasonable understanding of the
basics. For those eligible, we also offer the Canine Good Citizen test as a part of 
 this course. Advanced obedience is the perfect "next step" after Basic Obedience
or Puppy Preschool.

• Puppy Playgroup is for puppies under 6 months of age. This group is purely
social time where your little one will learn to speak "dog." We require 2 rounds
of puppy shots as well as a Bordetella vaccine. Please bring your records.

• Agility Training is an obstacle course consisting of tunnels, jump poles, slides
and more. Our class is strictly for fun, confidence building and exercise.
This is not a competitive agility course.
