Every dog should have basic obedience training. All of the exercises taught have practical value in everyday life. Almost anyone who is willing to spend about fifteen minutes a day everyday with his dog, attend the weekly classes and observe the three P’s of obedience training (Patience, Practice, Persistence) can train a dog. 

​Obedience training doesn’t solve all behavioral problems but it is the foundation on which to work. Training your dog to be a good neighbor, a good family member and a best friend is the best thing besides love that you can provide for your dog. It opens up a line of communication between you and your canine friend that will enrich, and last throughout, the relationship . It will establish the social hierarchy between you and your pet as well as make him more confident.

Our classes provide the training necessary to earn obedience titles such as Companion Dog (CD), Companion Dog Excellent (CDX), Utility Dog (UD) and Utility Dog Excellent (UDX). In addition to traditional obedience training we sometimes offer “specialty” classes as interest arises. Specialty classes include those such as “Attention Games”, “Tricks Workshop” and “Polishing” classes (to prepare for competition).

Our instructors are members dedicated to the obedience training of dogs. They donate their time and are qualified with obedience titles on their own dogs. They are required to attend obedience seminars in order to gain new and different training skills.

All classes are held at our training facility at 108 Battle St.
*Class fees subject to change as equipment prices vary.
