CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Puppy PreSchool: Puppies up to 6 months of age will receive a foundation for basic obedience skills: they will have fun while learning sit, down, coming, loose leash walking, and much more. We also address those puppy challenges: biting, potty training, jumping, etc. Off leash socialization time is included to help your puppy learn good socialization skills both with people and other puppies.

Puppy Kindergarten: Puppies 6 months to 1 yr. will have fun learning the basics: sit, down, come, walking on a leash, potty training, and other positive skills! Off leash time is included to help your puppy learn good socialization skills with both people and other puppies. This class will also include the AKC STAR program for puppy skills. 

Puppy Agility: Puppies 8 wks to 1 year will have a lot of fun with tunnels, low jumps, agility contact pieces and more while reinforcing good behavior and building confidence. Great off leash training for your puppy while bonding and building a wonderful relationship. There are no pre-requisites or skills needed for this class. 

Puppy Agility 2: More off leash work to help your puppy continue to develop their agility skills as well as more handling skills for you as an owner. This mostly off leash training can help you reinforce obedience, build more confidence, and continue to develop your puppy’s desire to please you while having fun. Puppies should have taken Puppy Agility 1 prior to taking this class.

Agility 1: This class is for dogs 1 year and older who would like to learn some basics of agility with jumps, tunnels, weaves, etc. Off leash skills are not required, as that is one of the objectives of this class as well. There are no pre-requisites or skills needed for this class. 

Agility 2: This class is for dogs 1 year and older who have had Puppy Agility 2 or Agility 1.  We will take you further into the world of agility as we explore handling skills and continue to improve on the obstacles.

Agility 3: This class is for dogs 1 year and older who have had Agility 2.  Further develop your handling and agility skills.  Dogs in this class must be able to work off leash.

Home Obedience I: Dogs 1 year and older will learn the basics of home obedience: sit, down, loose leash walking, stay, come, etc. The distractions provided by the class help your dog learn to utilize these skills away from home, where the distractions are often the biggest challenge! We address problem behaviors as needed. There are no pre-requisites

Home Obedience 2/Pet Therapy: Dogs continue with basic skills while adding more skills, hand signals, distractions, etc. It covers all of the skills needed to pass the CGC test.  Dogs should have had Obedience 1 or the equivalent. 

Rally Obedience: Rally was designed with the traditional pet owner in mind. It is a successful stepping stone from the AKC Canine Good Citizen® program. A rally course includes 10 to 20 stations, depending on the level. Scoring is not as rigorous as traditional obedience. Communication between handler and dog is encouraged and perfect heel position is not required. Use teamwork to maneuver around the course.
