✦ Class Focus

This 6-week group class covers essential practical skills like getting your dog's attention, coming when called, settling down, and basic cues like sit and leave it, while learning to work around distractions and make training enjoyable. You'll discover how dogs learn best, develop consistent communication, and address everyday challenges like chewing, counter surfing, and leash pulling.

Perfect for dogs of any age who are new to a family or haven't had much formal training, this class also benefits dogs who know some basics but need practice in a distracting group environment. You'll build confidence in your training while strengthening your bond with your pup.

First class is orientation without dogs in attendance.

✦ Prerequisites:

• Dogs must be 6 months or older
