Group Classes
Group classes are perfect for puppies and adult dogs who need proper socialization, confidence building, or help with distractions in real world settings. Our group classes are small and personalized—three dogs minimum, six dogs maximum per class—giving you a better experience than your typical big box stores and retail chains.
Group classes are available exclusively to clients who have already completed an in-home training package with us and are offered as a monthly subscription for $200/mo (unless otherwise stated below).

Skills include being able to handle city and urban lifestyle, public access work, proofing environmentals and real-life training skills.
Community Canine
Building more skills of the CGC test, this is our “intermediate” class. Skills include recall past distractions, proofing obedience around crowds, advanced heeling, and much more.
All dogs must have current proof of a negative fecal exam AND up to date vaccinations. If your dog is demonstrating aggressive behavior, group classes are NOT for you. Please call Alison for a consult instead.
Because our classes are smaller/more personalized, attendance is important since there will be no makeup classes. Our classes are run on a start/stop basis, and available classes may change over time. Call Alison directly for registration.
