We help you have a well trained dog you can live with.

COMPETITION OBEDIENCE PROGRAMS - Competition obedience is a sport. It is a dance of precision between the human and canine. The sport requires the dog and handler to pay close attention to each other to achieve this unison and teamwork. Our goal is to help you and your dog, be the best competitive team you can be.

ATTENTION CLASS - The basic requirements for this class are to have a dog that can walk beside you, and knows the sit command.

WHAT YOU NEED
You will need yourself, your dog, a three foot leash, and treats.
WHAT THE CLASS TEACHES
We show you the ABCs of attention training, from start to finish. You will learn how to teach your dog to be responsible for keeping an eye on you and finding heel position. You will also learn to teach maneuvers such as, In, Close, and Back, Fronts and finishes, Sit and Down stay.
If you have never learned to teach your dog attention work, this is the class for you.
