Group Dog Obedience Training Classes

Group dog obedience training classes are offered on Monday and Wednesday nights - and occasionally on Tuesday nights when necessary. All classes are 8 weeks in duration. The cost for the entire 8 week course is $175 + tax.

Our group dog obedience training classes are one hour long and limited to a maximum of 10 dogs per class (smaller for more individual attention), with 1 instructor and 1 assistant ...a great people-to-dog ratio! There is plenty of parking, with a grass area next to our building for bathroom walks.

Curriculum

Our dog obedience training classes are much more involved than other trainers' classes. They include demonstrating methods to teach puppies and dogs to:

stop jumping on people
stop play biting and mouthing
release items from their mouths
leave objects alone when told to do so
heel by your side and sit when you stop
sit and stay for 3 to 5 minutes
lie down and stay for 3 to 5 minutes
come and sit in front of you
stand and stay while you wipe their paws or brush them

The dog obedience training group classes also include mini-discussions (10 minutes each) on:

housebreaking
proper toys and how to have your dogs pursue them
chewing problems
proper grooming
trimming nails
ear cleaning
