Pressure and proofing class 

This class is for those people and dogs who are training for dog sports (all types) and who either are or wish to be actively competing. 

In this class, you and your dog will learn to work together while managing pressure stress. This will be done in a scientific and systematic way, as opposed to quick and easy correction based training.

In this class, the team will learn how to train through pressure stress so that they can manage it as it appears during the course of training as well as competition. Proofing of individual exercises will also be performed based on this methodology. 

Please note, this is not a class for quick results nor is it a correction based class. If you want or expect either, then this class is not for you.

Obedience/Rally

Group and private lessons available in competition obedience and rally (shaping individual exercises and skills - all levels), home manners, and tricks. 

Rally classes

These classes are intended to give teams opportunities to practice with individual signs and with running short sequences. 

The focus on these classes will be for teams to be able to work on individual signs regardless of the level that they are training and or competing at. All levels are welcome on and off leash depending on what the handler and dog team wish to do. 

This is not a course for just practicing sequences. It is to focus your/your dogs training on individual signs with the goal of improvement under various circumstances. Teams will have the opportunity to run short sequences during the class.
