Dog Obedience Classes
Group Classes at a Glance
The Details
Our group classes are fun, dynamic and very educational. The main target of these classes is forward progress toward reliable off leash obedience performance. By that we mean that your dog is on and off leash and you give a command from any distance away and your dog obeys. If you are just starting out in dog training this might sound impossible, but it’s not. We’ve created 4 levels of classes to help you achieve this goal.
Our class levels aren’t about age as much as experience. We want most dogs to start at Level I and if it’s clear you and your dog are ready to something more challenging, we’ll move you into the appropriate class level.
Every class addresses socialization and specific behavior issues, plus there is always time for your questions.
Puppies must be 16 weeks old to start the Level I class.

Clicker training
Clicker training is a common form of positive reinforcement This simple and effective training method utilizes a clicker, which is a metal strip inside a small plastic box that makes a distinct clicking sound when pressed. The click is much faster and more distinct than saying "good dog" and much more effective than training with treats alone. To teach a dog the meaning of the click, a treat is given immediately after clicking. Once the dog learns the positive effects of the clicking sound, the clicker itself acts as a conditioned reinforcer. Clickers can be found at most major pet stores and are relatively inexpensive.
