Policies

Most classes have prerequisites, and students should review these requirements before registering. All dogs must be current on rabies vaccinations. Puppies require current vaccinations and a negative fecal test, and must not have aggression issues. For some classes, dogs should be able to work off-leash or perform specific skills like sit, down, stay, or weaving.

Certain classes, such as Conformation, Agility Run Thru, and Rally Practice Run Thru, are drop-in sessions that do not require advance registration. For Basic Manners and Puppy Kindergarten, dogs should not be brought to the first class. Rally Practice Run Thru is for independent practice without instructor supervision.
