Class Descriptions

Loose Leash Walking & Greetings Group Program – NEW!!

Does your dog pull on the leash or get overly excited when meeting others? This group program helps dogs practice calmer leash walking and more polite greetings with people and other dogs. Over 5 sessions we’ll build better habits and lay the groundwork for more enjoyable outings.

Barkour 

A hybrid class that combines obstacles, obedience, tricks and scent work. Barkour is sure to keep your clever pup honing their brains and bodies in this engaging, fun-filled class.

Brain Games

Let’s get those brains engaged!!! Did you know your dog is capable of so much more than obedience behaviors? What if they could read? Count?

In Brain Games we tap into our dogs cognitive abilities such as problem solving, memory and emotional intelligence. Your dog will leave class with the tools to read simple words, count and recognize common shapes.

Week 1 will include time to make your props for the class and learn how to bring out the brainiac in your dog.

Nose Work: Intro to Odor

Dogs love to sniff. They sniff to explore their world and to calm themselves when stressed. They stiff to find drugs and missing people. They sniff to communicate with each other. Sniffing is one of the most natural activities a dog does, and all dogs like to do it!

In this class we will turn their love of sniffing into a fun activity for you to do with your dog. No, you won’t have to get down on all fours and sniff with them, but you will gain a new level of understanding when it comes to your dog’s sniffer.

Dogs will learn how to sniff on command and also be introduced to the scent of Birch, one of the common scents used in NW competition. You will learn how to encourage confidence in your dog as well as how to put together your scent containers for play at home.

Tricks Class

Looking for a fun class to get your dog’s mind working? Give trick a try! Trick training is more than just silly party games to entertain your friends. Tricks are behaviors that make your dog think and do in ways they don’t typically do on their own.

We teach our dogs to sit on command, but they already know how to sit on their own, but does your dog know how to do a fist bump? Or say their bedtime prayers? Join us for Tricks and see what fun and amazing behaviors you and your dog can come up with together.

By the end of class you and your dog will be eligible to earn their Novice Trick Dog title thru the AKC.
