New Classes - Starting Week of November 4th
Canine Life Skills - Foundation 1: Thursdays @ 5:30 pm
Suitable for all dogs 20 weeks and up. In this intro class your dog will learn the foundation behaviors necessary to become a canine good citizen. You'll learn the skills necessary to properly observe, mark and reinforce positive behaviors. Sit, down, loose leash walking, leave it, attention/focus and impulse control will be covered; as well as the importance of enrichment and management. Come join us for a fun and rewarding basic training class.
Cost: $175-/7 weeks.
Instructor: Cassidy Albert, CPDT-KA
Intro to Rally-O Fun: Thursdays @ 6:40 pm
Interested in dog sports but don't know where to start? This class will be an introduction to Cynosport Rally Obedience. Rally is described by Cynosport as "a fun test of obedience and the trust in the relationship between dog and handler." Courses are comprised of 10-20 stations where the dog and handler are instructed to perform certain obedience exercises. Skills that will be improved upon in this class are heeling, precision in basic cues (sit, down, etc), and working around distractions. We will also introduce basic positioning cues. This class will start you on your way to becoming competition ready if you so desire, or will improve your pet dog's obedience skills and relationship with you. This is a very fun sport to play with your dog and I hope you will come join us!
Prerequisite: Completion of a Foundation Level class or private assessment. Dog must be able to work in a group without causing disruption (excessive barking or reactivity).
Cost: $175/6 weeks
Instructor: Cassidy Albert, CPDT-KA
Puppy Head Start: Saturdays @ 9:30 am
Puppy Socialization at it's finest. Come join us and set your puppy up for success. Your puppy will be introduced to new people and puppies while learning the basic skills of waiting their turn, how to "say please", polite greetings, appropriate play. $25/per class. Reservations in advance.
Due to the fact that we are a small venue and our classes have a short run, we have a no make-up, no refund policy on all our classes. Please plan accordingly. Thank you!

I've had my Morkie, Claudia Jean, at a number of different trainers, obedience and agility classes, both in Vermont and Florida. Caroline is simply the very best. She has a quiet but reassuring manner with both dog and handler, and has taught my pup to behave, pay attention, play and jump hoops almost like magic. We feel very lucky to have found her!"
