Competition Level Dog Training Classes 
Our competition advanced dog training features classes in Novice, Advanced Novice, Beginning Open, Advanced Open, Utility and the ever popular Super Drill!  While most people in these classes plan to earn Obedience, Rally or Agility Titles,  competition is not necessary in order to attend.  We do however, explain Trial Rules, ring procedures and the requirements specified for American Kennel Club, United Kennel Club, Canadian Kennel Club and Mixed-Breed Dog Club Obedience Competition.

Competition classes include periodic diagnostic digital videos of the various obedience exercises which are taken in class, evaluated,  objectively critiqued, and E-Mailed to each handler during the next week.

Advanced Classes are paid on a month-to-month basis with the cost of $50.00 for one hour classes, $60.00 for hour and a half classes.   To register,  Instructor permission is required.  [E-MAIL]

One of the surest signs of learning is demonstrated as dogs become relaxed and reliable and stay when they're very tempted not to!
 
Whether your  goal is a socially perfect pet or a reliable obedience competitor your dog will learn to stay around other dogs. At first distractions are easy: Ignore other dogs!!! 

 

See Why? Why are these people cracking up??
See What they don't?See What? As dogs become more and more reliable on "Stay" tougher distractions are introduced to test their reliability. 
As dogs improve, they are able to withstand ever tougher distractions.  So what could possibly be harder to ignore than the one above?    Go See? What are THESE dogs ignoring??
Can your dog do this?    Larger picture? Friendly, sociable dogs stay even when the staying gets really tough!
