Circus Trick Training Class

4 week Class *8 tricks will be taught (with optional 2 extra weeks of tricks to earn your AKC novice trick title)

*No previous training experience is required for this class.

I believe in the importance of building up a dogs confidence with learning new tricks. It helps them gain trust and focus with their handlers. I’ve worked extensively with rescue dogs that just needed a little extra boost on their focus and attention. I include working on the confidence building equipment for the dogs into each class. Working towards an AKC Trick title is a great way to spend time fulfilling your dogs energy. A fun class to fulfill your dog outside of obedience and rigid training classes. One on one classes are scheduled so I can give focus on personalized attention to you and your dog. This class is simply amazing and a great way to bond with your dog at any age. We will put on a little show for anyone else in your family to display the tricks you have learned on the last day of class.

*Optional mobile classroom to accommodate the dog and humans busy schedules.

Fun with agility and Confidence Building Class for Adult dogs

Its important to keep dogs mentally happy and physically active. I’ve created all my own agility equipment that can be brought to your home and set up to help your dog gain confidence and engage them with you in a fun way. I begin with small low impact equipment (Tunnel, Cavaletti, low jumps and balance boards) and we can increase the challenge as the dog gains more confidence. If your home is located in an apartment or you don’t have the outdoor space we can work from my fenced in yard so the dog has freedom to try out all the equipment.
