If your dog is over a year old we would like to meet your dog prior to starting group classes. We reserve the right to remove any dog that we feel is not safe to have in a group setting with other dogs and people. If you have questions or concerns please contact us. We also offer private lessons for those dogs who are not fitted for group classes.
Please bring your dog to class with a proper fitting collar (not harness) and a regular leash no longer than 6ft. (For safety reasons, please NO retractable leashes) We will be discussing recommended training equipment the first night of class. Equipment is available to purchase at Canine Bliss.

This class will help you PREPARE for passing the CGC and CGCA test. Tests will NOT be given during class. There will be a test offered the week after class ends for a $15 fee. Kris is a Certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. All dogs who pass the 10-step CGC and CGCA test may receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club.
