We have so much to offer! We have obedience classes, puppy classes, rally, scent works, dog tricks class, agility, and even a GAMES-based obedience class!

We have a GAMES-BASED OBEDIENCE CLASS starting October 23^rd!

This is a FUN class which is not geared toward any competitions or titles.

You will work on elements of obedience through playing structured games. We have fun games such as Puppy Ping Pong, where you will work on stays and recalls, Temptation Tower, where you will work on leave it and recall and Musical Chairs!

These games will help you firm up elements of obedience such as heeling, recall, distance handling, impulse control, focus on the handler, dealing with distractions, leash work, socialization, and others.

We will have a scorecard for each team and the winning team will win a small prize at the end of the course! Come join our class and have some fun with your bestie!!

Have you ever wanted to try FLYBALL???? It’s an exciting, high-energy game you play with your dog and 3 other TEAMS! Your dog will need to have a SOLID RECALL. What that means is that your dog has to be able to come back to you when called, even with distractions all around. If you think your dog is a good candidate for FLYBALL, COME TAKE A CLASS WITH US!!!
