Group Classes - Will resume once the summer heat subsides.
Hope to see you in Septemper.

Group Classes are great for learning in a fast paced, distracting environment. They are excellent for dogs that are easily motivated, and provide socialization for the pets as well as the humans! We meet once a week, for an hour. Read on to learn about the different classes we offer. Use the links below to check for start dates, times, and locations. When you're all ready to register, give us a call at (602) 348-1078 to sign up!

Puppy 101
This highly motivating course is designed for puppies under 6 months. This class will teach your puppy: sit, down, stay, come when called, leave it, leash walking, and provide the necessary socialization for growing puppies. We also focus on teaching pups to properly meet-n-greet new people and pets, and help owners eliminate those puppy behaviors! (i.e. potty training, jumping, barking, chewing, digging)

Must be at least 10 wks to join this class! Lasts 8 weeks. Cost: $99.00

Beginner's Basics
This couse has a similar curriculum to Puppy 101, but is reserved for dogs 6 months and older. Training to teach sit, down, stay, wait, come, leave it and leash walking, but the focus is on listening skills. Socialization and proper meet-n-greets are practiced, and we also break those bad dog habits of jumping, digging, barking, and chewing.

End of class goal: 10ft sit-stay while instructor walks past with a boucing ball.

8 week course. Cost: $99.00

 
The recall

Intermediate Education
This course is for those who have completed Beginner's Basics, or with instructor approval. Focus highly on listening skills, and complete control in different situations. Dogs learn word and hand signal distinction. Instructors teach The Off-Leash Heel, stay with distractions, and the "Your Bed" command. Introduction to "Red Rover" and "Leapfrog" games teach pets to respond to only the commands of their owner, not the other dogs or parents in the class.

Graduation requirements: Dogs must Heel Off-Leash thru a course, perform a down-stay while another dog is called past, and are expected to perform all commands without food bribery.

8 week course. Cost: $99.00
