DESCRIPTION                   

Generally for puppies between the ages of 8 to 24 weeks. Introduction to basic obedience vocabulary and skills, including SIT, COME, DOWN, STAY, and controlled walking on leash. Class is very informal with positive motivation and socialization a main concern.

Dogs must be a minimum of 6 months old to begin this class. We emphasize getting and keeping the dog's attention so it can be trained effectively. In this class the commands, COME, SIT, DOWN, STAND and STAY, and HEEL are all introduced on lead.

To advance to the next level, your dog must exhibit the control necessary to train in that environment. 

This class will build on the skills learned in the Beginning Obedience class. In this class, off-lead work will be introduced: SIT, DOWN, STAY, RECALL, STAND FOR EXAM, and preliminary off-lead HEELING.                   

Rally is a unique combination of obedience exercises performed on a course that both dogs and handlers love. It is a fun and exciting new way to reinforce obedience and build a relationship with your dog.

Great fun for both dog and handler! Dogs run, jump, go through tunnels and travel over the dog-walk and teeter totter.

Advanced  Agility builds on the basic skills and introduces more challenging equipment and handling skills. Advanced Agility is primarily for those interested in competing in the agility ring.
