They provide training in agility, obedience, rally, scent work, fun tricks, and conformation, with a focus on fun, non-competitive experiences for pet owners. The facility features a 3,500-square-foot space with high-quality, safe equipment including A-frames, dog walks, tunnels, jumps, weave poles, and a ball pit. Private lessons are available for behavior issues like reactivity, fear, and resource guarding, with flexible, non-expiring packages. Unlike many trainers, they offer individual lesson purchases without mandatory bundles. Their lead trainer, Dana M, has over 20 years of experience and has competed in multiple dog sports since 1997. Trainer Miranda K. specializes in scent work and fun tricks, while Stephenie Galvan offers dedicated scent work mini-lessons. They also offer 30-minute “Crash Mini Lessons” for focused, budget-friendly training on non-aggression issues.

Their programs are designed for all experience levels, from beginners to those preparing for competitions. Classes are small (max 6 dogs) and held indoors on a non-slip rubber floor. They accommodate busy schedules with flexible booking and no expiration on lesson packages.

OC Dog Sports does not offer boarding, grooming, walking, or daycare services. Their primary focus is on training through group and private sessions at their facility.
