Mind Your P’s & Q’s
Some call it obedience, we prefer to call it "minding your p's and q's," or "minding your manners." These classes are dedicated to establishing and strengthening the bond between dog and owner and creating a connection to help them work as a team.
cannot imagine a better place to go for dog training
“Having been in the Animal Welfare industry for 18 years I cannot imagine a better place to go for help in dog training. They were even willing to work with my house Pig! I would never go anywhere else for my training needs!”
FAMILY MANNERS

Cost: $259
In the Family Manners Class, we will start you on the road to establishing a healthy, long-lasting relationship using the most innovative reward-based training techniques. The focus of this six week class is on reinforcing attention, sit, down, come, loose leash walking, and sitting politely for petting. We will teach you how to capture a behavior, lure a behavior, add a cue to a new behavior, use a marker signal and reinforce effectively.
Crating and Connection
Saturday, June 8, at 12:00 pm with Grace Slater-Pinnick and LeAnn Hiserote
Cost: $139
In this three-week class, you and your dog will work on building relaxation and happiness in the crate, and activities outside the crate that will keep your dog paying attention to you with some movement, distance, and distraction. These exercises will be designed for both agility students and non-agility students to build their skills and communication with their dog.
We have received so many compliments
“We are traveling with our Irish Setter Mavis. We have received so many compliments on her behavior. She has been in many stores and is well behaved at the different campsites. I was wondering if you could thank Cameron and Meredith for us for their excellent teaching. We get as many compliments on her behavior as her looks. Thank you so much.”
