"Dudley is a changed boy as a result of the class. He's much less shy and stand-offish. I am thrilled with the overall results, and this class is just the first step toward the Dudley and I becoming pet therapy partners. The class content is a great first step. We look forward to the next class."

Basic manners, also known as basic obedience, is an important step in your dog’s ability to function successfully in your home and your life. In this class, we use Empowerment Training to teach your dog basic skills in a fun, force-free way while building the bond of trust between you and your four-legged friend. This approach is more enjoyable for you and your dog, and it’s scientifically proven to be the most effective way to train!
This class helps your dog learn to sit, down, coming when called, stay, loose-leash walking, refrain from jumping on people and much more. You will receive a free clicker, and you’ll get a detailed instructional handout emailed to you so you can practice at home. Classes are small to allow for individualized attention, and our instructors are available for questions both during class and over email.
