Companion Dog Classes

Puppy Preschool is for very young puppies. This 6-week class focuses on socialization, communication skills, household skills, obedience skills, and husbandry skills at a level young puppies can process.

Elementary School is class one of two in your obedience training! This class lays the foundation for basic obedience training as well as a focus on husbandry/handling for you and your vet.

Middle School is class two of two in our foundation series. It completes your training foundation to further improve your dog's household manners and obedience skills, including moving with and around other dogs, and ignoring distractions.

This class builds on the skills learned in Middle School to cement those behaviors with distractions. It's great for those who bring their dogs out in public. Dogs will also have the opportunity to earn their Canine Good Citizen Certificate!

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program focuses on all the things every puppy and owner need to have a great start together. STAR stands for Socialization, Training, Activity and a Responsible owner. We offer evaluations for any puppy under a year old who has attended 6 hours of class in any of the Companion Classes.

Regain control and learn how to help your four legged friend with our reactive rehab class. Resolving reactivity requires work on both ends of the leash. This class focuses on teaching helpful foundation skills, improving communication, and building confidence.

Therapy Dog class covers everything from dog handling to visiting protocols so you will be prepared for your evaluation and ready to go out and visit! Class will also require outside reading and written homework in addition to training your dog.
