PREREQUISITES:
- ALL of our courses (other than Nosework, which is not an obedience course) require completion of either a Beginners Class or Puppy Class here at Redfern Canines. (The Puppy and Beginners courses present the same course material but are divided based on age — you do NOT need to attend both courses.)
- Puppy and Beginners Classes include a REQUIRED introductory seminar that you must attend before your first class date. You can attend any available seminar prior to the start date of your course.
- Other prerequisites are noted on the individual course registration pages.
All class dates and times are subject to change due to weather or other emergencies. Classes may be canceled if there are insufficient sign-ups.
Please review our Refund Policy before registering for classes.
Dogs cannot be enrolled in two courses at the same time without instructor approval.
