There's a lot more to having a well-trained dog than teaching them to sit. This 6 week course focuses on the foundation skills that make up the base of all future training: teaching your dog to pay attention to you, develop impulse control, and calm down when you ask them to. We all want a dog that can wait politely instead of stealing food off the coffee table, calmly sit instead of knocking your visitors down, and walk nicely on a leash--to get there, work on your foundations!

Finished Foundations and ready for the next step? Time for Foundations 2! This class builds on the previous one and uses those building blocks to teach more useful skills. We'll continue to practice leash walking, impulse control, and the rest--but also add more advanced work on stay, go to your mat, coming when called, polite greetings, and other important behaviors. Continue your dog's education with 6 more weeks of the core curriculum!

Rally Obedience is a super fun way to work on obedience after you and your dog have the basics down. Courses are set up with a series of obedience commands listed on signs. Work your way through the course, performing each command when you reach the sign. For over-achievers, you can even be timed to see how fast you and your dog can get through the course! This class will teach you all of the novice signs (commands), how to navigate a course, and more!

Ever wondered just how good your dog is at using their nose? Find out in our Noseplay class! This fun 6 week class is a chance for you and your dog to try out scent work. We'll explore concepts used in both nosework and tracking, with exercises designed to teach your dog how to sniff out what you're asking them to find, and to teach you to work with them as their helper! Scent work is a great brain teaser, and any dog can do it!

Is your dog a good citizen? Show everyone that they have the manners to be polite and respectful while out and about by earning their Canine Good Citizen (CGC) title! The CGC is a 10 item test designed to evaluate your dog in a variety of real life situations, such as loose leash walking and greeting a friendly stranger.  Any dog can be a CGC, and passing the test grants them a title certificate from the American Kennel Club.  Our CGC class is designed to help you prepare for the test. 

Come teach your dog some new tricks, and earn an AKC Trick Dog title! Our six week Tricks class is a great introduction to the world of trick training.
