Group Classes
Enrolling in a group class is a fun way to learn together, get your dog socialized, and work through distractions! We keep our classes small; this way we can help students individually as needed. Most of our classes run for six to eight weeks. We offer multiple classes that cover several topics. Group classes take a lot of dedication in the classroom and at home. We provide support and techniques to help you in a group setting to help reach your goals. We also provide assistance inbetween classes via phone or zoom. We go above and beyond to see our students succeed. Our class environment is held outdoors, so there may be a time we will have to reschedule due to weather. Dress appropriately for the weather.
