Training Classes
Dog Training Classes
We offer a full schedule of training classes for dogs and puppies.
Start with Family Dog or Puppy Kindergarten, depending on your dog’s age! Family Dog classes are for dogs over 16 weeks old, and Puppy Kindergarten is for younger pups. You’ll find the details below. Please read Class Policies before signing up.
Class Policies
Family Dog and Puppy Kindergarten classes start with an orientation that is for people only: dogs stay at home.
