ATTENTION DOG GUARDIANS:
- Dogs that have punctured another dog or human must first attend a private training session for assessment to determine if they are suitable for group training.
- Dogs that display excessive barking, growling, or lunging towards people or other dogs, while on leash must first attend a private training session to determine if they are suitable for group training. You may also sign up for our class specifically to address Leash Reactivity (101).
