BEGINNERS OBEDIENCE CLASSES
A dog is never too young or too old to learn how to listen to their pack leader. You will teach your dog to Heel, Sit, Stay, Stand, Down and Come. By the end of this course your dog will be able to "Sit and Stay" for one minute and "Down and Stay" for three minutes loose in the room with other dogs only feet away.
You will also be teaching your dog to "Come" when called a distance of approximately ten feet loose in a room filled with other dogs and owners. This class is taught in a group. It is an eight week course for all breeds of dogs and puppies. Puppies can start as young as ten weeks old.
Equipment needed: Please do not buy a new collar or leash. Instead bring whatever you are using to the first class. Once I see what you use now I can advise you if you need something different or not. (I will have leashes and collars for sale at class if you need them)

INTERMEDIATE OBEDIENCE CLASSES
This is an eight week course taught in a group for dogs who have already completed a “Basic Obedience” course with either myself or anther school or a home trained dog that can do a one minute Sit Stay, three minute Down Stay and a ten foot Recall of leash with distractions.
If your dog cannot do these things consistently in a room loose with other dogs then you are not ready for this class and you should come to the “Basic Obedience” level to strengthen the training your dog already has.
You will use silent commands, teach your dog basic agility and Rally skills, Place and start to work off lead strengthening the bond between you and your dog.
