Group Classes

We offer group classes for dogs who need help with their basic obedience and manners.  These classes are great for those just starting out and for those whose dogs need a refresher. 

We offer a 6 week basic obedience class, a 6 week advanced obedience class, and a puppy socialization class.  In this class, we cover the foundation of what your dog needs to know to be successful in their life with you. The list of things covered includes:
