How Our Classes Work

Our group class model is a unique two-phased, open-enrollment approach. This allows you to start training right away in the comfort of your home and ensures you are well-prepared and ready to dive right into our in-person group classes.

Phase 1: Pre-Class Online Orientation Course - you’ll learn all about:

  • How dog training works

  • Foundation dog training skills for you and your dog 

  • What to expect in our in-person classes

This empowers you to come to your in-person classes equipped with the tools and a few skills you need to see FAST progress in your training experience.

Phase 2: Join Any Level 1 Open Enrollment Class

After completing lessons, you’ll be ready to jump right into our Level 1 classes. Our open enrollment classes keep it flexible for your schedule because they allow you to join as soon as you’re ready - no waiting around for the next class to open!

Our Level 1 classes are kept small so that:

  • Every participant can receive the attention they need and deserve 

  • Every dog and person has space to acclimate without overwhelm

  • You can see effective progress towards your overall training goals

When you and your dog have achieved new milestones, our class levels system allows you to move up to the next level of training. Every class participant moves up at their own pace!
