Group Classes

Real training around real distractions — obedience and fun classes for every dog, every season.

Two tracks. One well-mannered dog.

Our core obedience classes build the manners every dog needs, while our fun classes keep trained dogs sharp, confident and entertained. Most classes run six weeks and are taught by our certified Master Trainers.
