Private or Group Lessons for Puppies Less than 4 months
I will come to your home or meet at a park, trail, or other puppy friendly location. Your puppy will learn about real world situations in a safe and loving manner. You may choose to be present for lessons or not if you have other obligations. You may schedule individual visits, or purchase a package of six or twelve lessons at a reduced rate. Packages are located at the end of the scheduling page. If you prefer group classes you can register your sixteen week or younger puppy. Lessons are held at 411 Davis Road, Bangor, Maine starting in March.

Manners - In person and virtual classes
In this class, you will learn how to gently promote the behaviors you need for life with your dog. We will handle the basics such as sit, down and stay, but you will also learn how to help your dog be comfortable around others. If your dog lunges at people or dogs while on lease, you should start with private lessons or the virtual class. Click the "Book Now" button for availability.​​

Agility - Next Level
In these continuing agility classes, we will focus on developing more advanced handling skills using short obstacle sequences as well as full courses. You and your dog must have previous agility training experience to take this class. Dogs must have a reliable recall and respect a four foot fence.
Agility for Beginners
Whether for home exercise or competition, agility training is a great way to build your dog’s confidence and strengthen your bond. This beginner course will focus on connecting with your dog and basic handling techniques and obstacle performance. Dogs must have a reliable recall and respect a four foot fence.
Rally Obedience coming this summer
Rally is a fun game using obedience skills in an interesting way. Variations of heel, sit, stay, and recall are increasingly more challenging as your skills improve. In higher levels you may see jumps and weaving! Whether you are looking for fun or competition preparation, rally is for you. This class is appropriate for dogs who can share an environment with others. There is not direct dog/dog contact. The small class size assures that you receive the individual coaching needed to enjoy the games.
