Are you interested in a fun, low pressure class that lets you bond with your dog and improve your training skills? Tricks are great foundations for valuable life skills and an excellent way to strengthen your relationship with your furry friend. Come and learn how to teach a trick you’ve always wanted to try or build a title routine from the ground up—all ages and skill levels are welcome in this class.
Our trainer is a Do More With Your Dog!-certified Trick Dog Instructor (CKC recognized) and is qualified to witness title performances. You could end your class with a new ribbon and title!
Dogs must be able to work around other dogs and cannot display any human or dog reactivity/aggression in order to attend Tricks classes.
