These sessions are offered in a class setting,
limited to not more than 6 dogs. By limiting the number of dogs per
class, we are able to provide more individualized instruction. Class
sessions normally run 5-6 weeks. Introductory classes also include a
7th session -- an Introduction to Training Seminar -- which is taken
before beginning the regular class sessions.
- Beginners Class (Basic Training Principles/Methodology)
- Puppy Classes
- Canine Manners Class
- Kids Klub (restricted to children and
youth -- and their parents)
- Special Interest/Focus Training (Individual class
periods deal with specific tasks, such as Heel, Come, Stay, etc.,
determined by the specific needs of the class members.)
- Rally-Obedience (several levels)
- IMPROV
- Agility (several levels)
- K-9 Sampler -- A fun introduction to the various
kinds of dog competition, including Obedience, Conformation (Breed
Show), Rally-O, Agility, Flyball, Freestyle ("Dancing With Dogs"), etc.
Goals are to help people understand what they are watching during
competition, AND to help decide whether a specific type of competition
might be something for their dog.
- Tricks Class
- Tracking Class
- Loose Leash Walking
- Conformation Competition 101
- Obedience Competition (several levels)
- Canine Good Citizen Preparation
- Therapy Dog Preparation
Individualized Instruction
Some training sessions are best provided in a
one-on-one setting, based on the specific needs of the dog and the
handler. These opportunities are custom-designed, and held either
at the training facility or at the handler's home. Instruction
usually involves a minimum of 3 sessions.
- Private Training in Principles and Methodology
- Remedial Training or Consultation to address
issues specific to the dog
