That’s where we come in! Our comprehensive dog training curriculum is designed to strengthen the bond between you and your dog while setting them up for a lifetime of success.
Why Enroll in Dog Training?
Training is more than just teaching your dog basic commands—it’s about fostering a positive, healthy relationship and ensuring that your dog understands how to navigate the world around them. Enrolling in dog training classes provides you with the tools you need to address behaviors, enhance communication, and create a harmonious home. Whether you have a playful puppy, a grown dog with a few habits to correct, or you’re interested in preparing your dog for the Canine Good Citizen certification, we have a class for you.

Dog Obedience 1
This intro class covers essential commands like sit, stay, place, come, and loose-leash walking. We also discuss and practice overcoming distractions. It’s all about building a foundation of trust, respect, and communication, and most importantly, bonding with your dog.
Dog Obedience 2
This class is a continuation of our Obedience Level 1, where we will focus on expanding the skills to more real-life situations and work on more advanced obedience! Your dog will learn more advanced commands, improve focus and impulse control, and be challenged with new distractions. This class is perfect for dogs who are ready for the next step!
Canine Good Citizen Class
For those who want their dogs to be well-mannered in any situation, the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Class prepares your dog for the official CGC test. Learn all of the skills required to pass the AKC Canine Good Citizen test and take the test on the 6th week. For those who want their dog to be a therapy dog or you just want them to practice good manners in public, this course focuses on teaching your dog to be calm and controlled in public spaces, around people, and with other dogs.
Private Training
Sometimes, one-on-one attention is the best way to address specific concerns or focus on particular goals. Our private training sessions are tailored to your dog’s individual needs, whether it’s working through behavioral issues, specific obedience challenges, or custom training goals.
Puppy Class
Is your puppy under 6 months old? Then our Puppy Class with Pet Parent is the perfect place to start their training journey! This class helps puppies build confidence, learn basic commands, socialize with other puppies, and develop good behaviors from the start. They will also be introduced to different sounds to reduce fear from noise. Early socialization is key to raising a well-rounded dog, and our Puppy Class ensures that your little one is set up for success!
