Puppy Obedience Class
Our Puppy Obedience Class teaches essential commands like sit, stay, and come while addressing behaviors such as biting and barking. Classes simulate real-life distractions to help puppies integrate into your lifestyle. The six-week program includes family participation and covers nutrition, crate training, and leash handling.
Unlimited Group Training
This program guarantees lifelong obedience through private sessions, unlimited group classes, and field trips. Dogs learn to respond reliably in any environment, regardless of age or breed. The curriculum builds confidence and eliminates the need for future training, ensuring lasting results.
Agility Training
Our agility course introduces dogs to obstacles like jumps, weave poles, and tunnels, fostering fitness and handler-dog teamwork. Designed for competition standards, it boosts confidence in shy dogs and strengthens bonds. Classes require dogs to be at least one year old and vaccinated.
Private Instructions
Customized private sessions address specific behavioral challenges in your home or preferred location. Tailored to your dog's needs, these 45-minute lessons focus on practical solutions for obedience and communication. Additional fees apply for travel beyond designated areas.
