Dog Training

Dog Training Casses 2019

We are excited to bring group dog training classes to the Pet Adoption Center! Our classes will show you how to use positive training methods while teaching your dog good behaviors. These methods get amazing results that last and the best thing is you never have to hurt, harm or intimidate your dog to get behaviors.

ADOLESCENT PUPPY PLAYGROUP

Geared towards teenaged pups practicing their dog-dog social skills in a safe and supervised setting, we offer Adolescent Playgroup!

Trainers narrate play and combine pups who are compatible playmates, monitoring carefully to make sure puppies are learning and having good experiences.

PUPPY K

Puppy Kindergarten is designed to meet the training and socialization needs of pups that are under 18 weeks old. Owners and their pups learn to adapt to new people, dogs, environments, and experiences.

LEVEL 1: GROUP DOG TRAINING

This is an introductory-level course that addresses training areas of immediate concern to dog owners.

CANINE GOOD CITIZEN

Canine Good Citizen (CGC) is a certification program developed by the American Kennel Club (AKC) that is designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. The CGC Program is open to mixed breed and purebred dogs, and stresses responsible pet ownership for owners and basic good manners for dogs.
