Training

All our training is based on positive reinforcement methods. Instructors do not train your dog for you, the owner/handler. Instead, we will teach you how to work with your dog to get the results you want.

Classes are conducted for approximately one hour per week, for either four or six weeks. Most classes are offered three to four times per year depending on demand

To preserve the health and safety of all participants, your dog’s vaccinations must be up to date prior to starting any class.
