Puppy Conditioning
Puppy programs are designed for dogs who have received their second set of shots. Using a positive approach, we focus on training for the pet and companion dog with the emphasis on relable responses.
You will learn to teach your dog to come when call, to follow from a distance, fetch, hide and seek, sit, down, and stand. Plus all of those normal natural "doggie behaviours"... barking, chewing, jumping up, biting or mouthing, and house soiling can be discussed.
Course length is five weeks (one session per week). Price $175 (+HST).
Beyond Basics
Beyond Basics is designed to assist the dog and owner to prepare for the future. As a "Puppy Conditioning Part 2" we continue our focus on positive reinforcement and setting the dog up for success, so the future step of Canine Good Neighbour and Agility classes will be more easily attainable.
Course length is five weeks (one session per week). Price $175 (+HST).
Canine Good Neighbour
Your dog will learn to present good manners at home, in public places, and in the presence of other dogs. A certificate from the Canadian Kennel Club will be presented upon completion.
Course length is eight weeks, including the test (one session per week). Price $260 (+HST).
Outdoor Tune-up
Does your dog race outside with ears plugged to the sound of your voice, sniff every blade of grass, lick every pool of liquid and pay far too much attention to objectionable objects? Sounds like he may be due for a slight outdoor tune-up.
Course length is three weeks. Price $135 (+HST)
Rally-O
A new sport combining the characteristics of agility and traditional obedience, Rally-O is recognized by the American and Canadian Kennel Club. Timed and including 12-20 performance stations, Rally encourages confidence and focus as owners and dogs work through each one in a single, continuous sequence without interruption from the judge. Though Rally is not simple, it will provide unrivaled mental stimulus and strengthen owner and canine bonds, a truly rewarding and fun experience. A beginner's course will include commands such as sit-stay, turn, heel, change pace and recall.
Course length is six weeks. Price $160 (+HST)
Trick Training
Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? Our Trick Training classes are open to dogs of all ages and are an excellent way to build a stronger relationship with your canine.
Course length is four weeks. Price $150 (+HST)
Agility
Is your dog full of energy, has a hunger to run and loves to jump high? Or perhaps your dog just wants to have fun and you don't have the space in your backyard to set up a course.
Come and join us in these 8 week courses for Bounder to weave, leap, jump over bars, crawl through tunnels and have fun. This is a great class for you and your dog to reinforce teamwork and for you to learn how to give direction and guidance using positive reinforcement.
There are three levels. Each class consists of 8 weekly sessions.
