Details:

Each class runs for one hour, once per week.  For example, Beginner Pet Obedience listed on Tuesday is from 7:30 - 8:30 PM every week, starting
Mar. 14th, and will run for 7 weeks. 
The first class of Puppy Kindergarten and Beginner Pet Obedience is without dogs, in order to familiarize you with our training methods and allow us to answers any questions or concerns you may be having with your dog at home.

Obedience, Agility and Rally run-thrus continue until all runs are completed.

How Do I Sign Up?

Our procedure is that once you know what class you would like to take, please call us at the school.  We will take a few minutes to get some basic information, and put you on our class roster.

Once that is done, a non-refundable deposit of $25 or more is needed to hold your spot.  We will send or e-mail a registration form to you which you can mail back to us with that deposit, or you may give us the deposit over the phone via credit card and send in the registration when you get it.   Some classes fill up and if we do not have a deposit on file, then we must move that person to a waiting list and put in the person with the deposit.

We will send a deposit confirmation email once the deposit is received.  If you have any questions or would like to know more about our classes, please let us know by email, or give us a call.  

Private Lessons can be arranged at the school or in your home.  We do not recommend that private lessons be the only place you train because the dog needs to learn how to behave in the presence of others with distractions and temptations.   Private lessons, however, may be a great way to get started, a way to find out about our training methods, a way to address particular training issues, or something to do until your schedule allows you to sign up for one of our regular classes.  If your dog has not been socialized for a while, private lessons are a way to introduce your nervous one about coming "to school" with one-on-one guidance from our trainers.  There are many possibilities, please feel free to call us with questions...
