Puppy Purchase/Potty Training - This class instruction is for puppy purchase advice and training.
You will learn instruction for potty training, chewing, non-sense barking, jumping up on people,
stealing food, etc. This will be a one time 50 minute class with question and answer time.
Puppy Obedience - Does your puppy need to learn the basics such as sit, down, walk on leash,
call on command, and learn to play non-aggressively with other pups? If so, this is the class for you
and your dog. This class is designed for young dogs’ ages 7 weeks to 4 months old. Remember
our youngsters have short attention spans and this class will be adapted to them. This class is a
50-minute class once a week for a 5-week session.
Kids and their dogs - Dogs think of kids as the bottom of a totem pole or as a toy because of their
quick movements and higher voices. Wouldn’t it be great for a child to become “Top Dog Leader”
instead of part of a dog pack?
This class is designed for Children ages 7 to 14 (other ages welcomed if approved by instructor).
Children learn the basics of dog obedience. It is taught in a slower format with extra help so that
the children understand. The dogs learn the basics and the children learn to take responsibility for
an animal. Think of it as a project with lifelong results. This class is a 50-minute class once a week
for a 5-week session.
Beginner Obedience - Teaching your dog the basics in obedience, including walking at your side
without pulling, calling the dog (getting a response the first time), sit, down, stay, stand, etc.
Learning how a dog thinks so that you can break the language barrier and get the results you want
to make your relationship great between you and your dog. This class is a 50-minute class once a
week for a 5-week session.
Advanced Obedience - Now that you have learned the basics on leash, it is time to advance the
techniques that you have learned in beginners. You will learn how to transfer leash control to
verbal or hand control (off leash). Picture this…a room full of dogs and people, the dog owners sit
their dogs and give them a stay command as the owners walk around the room only to return to
their dogs that are still in the stay position. Or imagine a room full of dogs and owners and the
dogs are instructed to heel next to the owners and they never leave their sides. These are taught
with both verbal and non-verbal hand commands. What a happy owner/dog relationship this
portrays. This class is a 50-minute class once a week for a 5-week session.
Obedience Membership class - This class allows you to keep working with your dog all year long.
You can pay a membership fee, which allows you the opportunity to come once a week to a
scheduled obedience class and work on more of the verbal and non-verbal techniques with your
dog. Your dog, with continued work will only get better and more responsive to you. A dog wants to
please its owner and doesn’t know how to until you show them. Dogs are like people, in fact they
should never stop learning and they are never too old to learn. Dogs are social animals and look
forward to spending time with their owners. This class may be looked as “Dogs Night Out”. This
class will be offered as a 1 year non-refundable membership which allows both dog and owner one
scheduled class per week. The prerequisites for this membership is the completion of Beginner
Obedience, Intermediate (Level 1), and Advanced (Level 2). An installment payment plan is
available for this class!
Obedience “Tutoring By Us” Class - We offer this ‘Tutoring By Us” obedience class where all you
have to do is allow your dog to be here with us for 1- 30minute, one on one class, each week for 5
weeks. At the end of this “Tutoring by Us” obedience class you can then join our beginner
obedience class together with your dog and enjoy working with your dog.
Beginner Agility - Learn the safe techniques of using agility equipment, and have fun doing agility
and learning new commands that your dog will understand. Your dog will start on leash and as the
dog progresses, the leash will come off. Watch your dog become more confident and increase the
drive to complete the agility tasks faster. This class is a 50-minute class once a week for a 5-week
session.
Intermediate Agility/Level 1 - Now that your dog knows the agility equipment and is starting to
listen to your commands, it is time for sequences. The dog and handler will learn how to do 4-6
obstacles in a row while off leash directing the dog where to go next. This is a fun class because
improvement is easy to see. Agility is like taking a child to a play ground. Dogs love it and it is
good for them physically and mentally. Exercise is good! This class is a 50-minute class once a
week for a 5-week session.
Agility Membership class – is a one year membership that allows the owner to attend one of our
Agility classes once a week for one full year. The owners needs to designate which weekly class
they plan to attend because we like to limit the amount of class members attending so everyone
gets adequate time on the equipment. The prerequisite for the membership is the completion of the
Beginner Agility. Our instructors will make recommendations as to which level class you should be
attending for the membership. An installment payment plan is available for this class!
Dog Tricks - This class is for young and old because it is fun to teach your dog tricks. There are
many levels of difficulty and you are shown the steps to teach each trick. Your dog might even
show us a new behavior that could be made into a trick. Come and join the fun! This class will be
one time 50-minute class.
Dog Swim Classes - There is the conception that all dogs know how to swim but this is not always
true. There are some dogs that don’t know how to swim but can learn with instruction. The dogs
in this scheduled one on one class will be wearing a life preserver and taught how to paddle in our
20 ft. long in ground pool. This will be a healthy way for your dog to exercise. If your dog is a pro
at swimming, they can use the pool to enhance their muscle tone and strengthen their body’s for
more endurance activities such as hiking, agility, long walks, etc.
We have different swim levels available:
~ Pollywog – for dogs that do not know how to swim or are just very nervous around the water.
~ Tadpole – for dogs that need assistance getting started.
~ Paddlers – for dogs that know how to swim.
~ Olympic Lane frog – for dogs push’n for fun water exercise.
The swim classes are one on one and are scheduled for 15 minutes of time in the pool room. This
allows enough time for a pre-shower, swim time, post shower and drying time.
“Tutoring By Us” Classes – We offer this ‘Tutoring By Us” classes where all you have to do is
allow your dog to be here with us for 1- 30minute, one on one class, each week for 5 weeks. At
the end of this “Tutoring By Us” class you can then join a class together with your dog and enjoy
working with your dog.
Taking advantage of this class combination will be more satisfying for both you and your dog with
great livelong rewards. You will be a star pupil!
Some of our Day Camp dog owners have a great advantage because we can make arrangements
to enroll their dog in a “Tutoring By Us” class during the time they are in our Day Camp. The
owner does not have to make an extra trip back to our facility for the class.
You can basically choose any regularly offered class and use it as a “Tutoring By Us” class.
Handicap Class - Sometimes it is necessary for a dog to understand how to comply with their
handicap owner who may use a wheelchair, cane, or some other apparatus to help them with their
physical needs. This class will teach your dogs how to comply. This class will be a 50-minute
class once a week for a 5-week session.

dog to your home and the dog you already have. There may be some issues between the dogs.

time 50-minute class.

helps to focus on a task. They are happy to accomplish a task and know when you are pleased
and proud of them. This cart pulling training class is a one-time 50-minute class. Each dog will
learn at a different pace, which will determine how many classes will be needed to perform this cart-
pulling task successfully.

a set boundary that you would like your dog to respect? Let us help you train your dog to
understand your boundaries and how to respect them. This class offers many different tools that
you can use to accomplish the task of teaching boundaries to your dog. This is a one-time 50-
minute class.
Private Lessons - We can arrange private lessons for you and your dog to have sessions that
would be one on one with a trainer. The private lessons are scheduled according to requests.
These private lessons can be custom designed for your needs. The private lessons are available
by 30-minute intervals.
Behavior Consultation Session – This class session is scheduled on an individual basis. If you
are having some behavior problems that need to be assessed and/or addressed this would be the
class session for both you and your dog. You will receive expert advise and/or direction to change
the behavior problems you are having.
In Home Behavior Modification - Maybe you don’t need a class situation, or maybe your dog has
a bad behavior within your home and you don’t want it to continue for the next 10 to 15 years on a
daily basis. We make house calls! We will come to your home by appointment and evaluate the
situation. We will then show you techniques that you can do to improve your dog’s behavior. We
can come back for more home visits at a reduced rate if you need some additional aid with the
behavior training. Consider In Home Behavior modification.
