Group Class Information

All of our training classes meet once a week for 6 weeks at the same day and time each week. Each session is 30–40 minutes in length and carefully structured to help you build real, lasting skills with your dog.

These classes are designed for our trainers to TEACH YOU to train your dog. Our trainers do not train your dog for you—instead, each class includes both lecture and demonstration, followed by dedicated hands-on practice time where you’ll work through each exercise with your dog under the guidance of your instructor.

To ensure every student gets personalized support, all classes are kept small—no more than 4 dogs per class. This allows our trainers to observe your technique, offer feedback, and make real-time adjustments so you and your dog can progress with confidence.

If you’re looking for a supportive, educational environment where you’ll learn how to train your dog effectively, our classes are the perfect fit!
