Agility Classes

For beginners through advanced for fun, competition or anything in between. Teach your dog to go over obstacles, through tunnels and tires, over jumps, and weave through a line of poles.

Obedience

For those who want a well-mannered family pet, those who want to compete, or anything in between. Classes cover Sit, Down, Wait, Stay, Leave-it, Come, and Loose Leash Walking (heel). Classes get more challenging as you advance. For dogs and puppies 5 months or older.

Puppy classes

Puppy classes are for puppies 18 weeks or younger. This class focuses on socialization, handling exercises, and begins the fundamentals of training. Puppies are taken on "field trips" on my property where they are safely exposed to cats, puppy friendly adult dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, sheep, and a horse. Puppy issues such as housebreaking, mouthing, and manners are addressed, and there is plenty of time for questions and answers.
