Raise your puppy right! This class focuses on socialization, handling, and confidence building to help your puppy grow into a well-adjusted adult. We will also begin teaching some basic manners as a foundation for our Manners for Life class. Don't miss out on your puppy's critical development period - we can help you start off on the right paw! Manners for Life (dogs 4 months and older) – $85 It’s time for your dog to learn the basics! Your canine friend will master sit, stay, down, loose leash walking and more. Classes also address unwanted behaviors, such as jumping on people. Control Unleashed (dogs 8 weeks and older) - $85 If you have a dog that has trouble focusing around distractions, or get anxious in new settings, this class is perfect for you! Using clicker training, your dog will learn self-control and focus. Feisty Fido – $150 (Maximum of 4 dogs per class) Does your dog constantly bark and lunge at other dogs? Learn how to prevent and treat reactivity. Whether your dog is aggressive or simply uncontrollable at the sight of another dog, we can help you regain control. This class is not appropriate for dogs who display aggression towards people, or dogs who have issues with other dogs in the same household. Wallflower (for shy dogs) – $85 If you have a bashful pooch who shrinks away from attention or just needs some self-confidence, this class is for you! Using gentle desensitization techniques, we’ll help your shy pup come out of his shell.
Manners II - $85 Strengthen the basic skills learned in our Manners for Life or Positively Puppies class by working around distractions and fading out food rewards. A great class for dogs who need "continuing education" before moving on to more challenging work! Tricks for Treats – $85 Take your dog to the next level of obedience while building his canine IQ! Dogs learn to shake, high five, bow, crawl and more. Canine Good Citizen® – $85 This American Kennel Club (AKC) certification program is designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. This will be helpful with landlords, insurance companies and visits with your vet. Rally Obedience – $85 Let your dog complete this fun course, which is designed to test his skills in basic behaviors! This class will not only prepare your canine friend compete in Novice Rally, but help keep his skills sharp.
This class is a great way to exercise energetic dogs and build confidence in shy dogs. During 50-minute sessions, canine students learn to navigate an obstacle course with jumps, tunnels, A-frames, dog-walks, and more. Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced classes are available. Manners II: Outdoors - $85 Does your dog behave wonderfully indoors, but become more challenging to control outdoors? Learn how to transfer the commands taught in “Manners for Life” to keep your pet’s attention while enjoying the great outdoors. Nose Works $85 Does your dog's nose override his brain? Does he enjoy using his sniffer to sniff stuff out? Well then this class may be just what his nose ordered! Our "Nose Works" class is designed to help teach dogs to focus that great sniffer of theirs in a positive way. This is not a tracking type of training class, think of drug sniffing dogs, dogs who check cars and luggage at airports type of nose training. Prerequisite: Basic Manners
Tracking - $85 Dancing with Your Dog (Canine Freestyle) - $85 Freestyle (dancing with your dog) is one of the newest dog sports and one of the most popular. This class will teach you how to make up routines for you and your K9 partner, decide what music is best suited for your dog and the basic steps and moves your dog needs to get out there and get dancing. Your dog already had two left feet, but if you do as well, never fear - you don't need to know how to dance to enjoy this fun class. Novice (Formal) Obedience - $85 Formal Obedience --This is the class for learning the basics if you are interested in competing in Obedience. We will cover Fronts, Recalls, Finishes, and Heeling. Prerequisites would be either a Manners or Rally class.
