Puppy/Young Dog Obedience Class

Our puppy/young dog obedience class is designed to strengthen the bond between you and your dog.

Rally Obedience

Think of Rally as any team sport: You and your dog navigate a course, side-by-side, as you steer them through a course of 10-20 different signs. Each of these signs provides instructions regarding the next skill that is to be performed. The dog and handler move continuously throughout the course with the dog under control at the handler's side. There is a clear sense of teamwork between the dog and handler both during and between the numbered signs. It's all about working as a team while performing the skills with the dog under control.

Rally Class is held on Tuesdays at 4pm & 5:15pm and Saturdays at 1pm. Class's start March 12th, April 13th and April 30th 2024, class is 6 weeks for $100

Private lessons are a great way to jump start a program or focus on fixing a challenge with less distraction.

During this time period you and your trainer will go over any history you have with your pup, evaluate your current relationship, and develop a game plan to reach your goals. You will then begin practicing your new program with coaching, and finally you will head home with homework until next time.

30 minute / $60 or 60 minute / $100.   Contact us to set up a private lesson.
