Life Skills

An All-Levels Obedience Class
No classes available at this time
I'm thrilled to offer CGC Prep, Basic and Advanced Obedience rolled into one fantastic streamlined course! Come learn the skills your dog needs for day-to-day life and find out how to get the well-behaved, responsive dog you're looking for. Reasons this class ROCKS:

1. Pay-As-You-Go Convenience

​Need to miss a class? Not interested in the topic this week? Want to try a few lessons before making a big investment? No Problem!

2. Learn Real-Life Skills

We focus on real-life skills in real-life settings so your dog can learn to be a good family member - and you can learn to work with your dog on the things you run across every day.

3. Re-Take Lessons as Often as You Like

Don't pay for a whole bundle of classes you don't need! Just come whenever we cover the subject you need and/or come to practice lessons for help polishing.

4. One-on-One Attention

We'll practice the behaviors one at a time. This means:
  • one-on-one attention from me and my assistants
  • learn by watching others practice the same techniques
  • get support from other class members as they cheer you on
  • breaks for doggies so classes stay fun and relaxed

5. Any Dog, Any Age, Any Skill Level

We start at your dog's level and build skills each time you come. In this class there's always room for improvement - no matter how much your dog knows (or doesn't know). It's also a great place for puppies to start learning the right way!
