Along with teaching obedience commands, students also learn about canine behavior, nutrition, leadership skills, and much more!

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.

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.
