Advanced Obedience classes are primarily geared towards dog owners who are interested in therapy or service work as well as dog sports. You must book a consultation prior to enrollment in our advanced obedience classes and have participated in prior basic obedience classes. These are private lessons that occur for at least 1 hour each week.
If you are interested in group training please visit our free community event page for pack walks and track days!
