Are you tired of being frustrated?
There are So Many Ways to Train Dogs!
We offer a range of services that can help. Some dogs (and owners!) do better with the quiet focus of a one-on one private session. Other handlers want to practice good manners around other dogs in our group classes.
Our advanced classes work for the advanced pet owner as well as those who are competition bound!

Private sessions are $70 for a one hour session.
Lessons are scheduled at various days and times around our group classes.
All lessons and classes are outdoors.
Then Make a plan for success
Some owner's schedules are better suited for private sessions to address your agenda in the most efficient way possible
Some dogs need the quiet, one-on-one atmosphere to build a solid foundation before they go to a group class.
We can help you make a plan for further training in your first private session.
Group classes
Our group classes offer regular skill building in a small, friendly environment.
This helps your dog to learn how to perform their skills in the context of other dogs and people.
We offer groups classes in agility, rally obedience and basic obededience.
Beginner group classes are $200 for an 8 week class (class meets once a week for 8 weeks)
Intermediate and Advanced Classes use a Punchcard system. Each pass is $100 for 5 weeks. These upper level classes are ongoing, and if there are openings in the class, students may join at any time.
One question. Infinite potential.
