Level Up Training
Group classes are a great way to build the relationship between you and your dog. Our Level Up training program allows you to build a customized training program in a group setting. Each level teaches you a valuable skill set to build your relationship with your dog and improve their behavior. After completing Level 1 you choose which levels or units are important to you and your dog. All lessons run for 1 hour per week, number of lessons will vary with each level/unit.
We limit the number of participants in our classes to ensure you don’t get lost in the crowd with your dog and can get the training help you need. While we do have indoor spaces available for training in inclement weather we do try to make use of our outdoor spaces as much as possible throughout our programs so your dog is learning to behave in a true to life environment with real life distractions.
Level Up clients that have completed the first three levels of our training program also enjoy the benefit of being able to attend our Saturday drop-in program where they can continue to improve their training skills around a variety of dogs, livestock, and people of all ages.
