Group Dog Training Classes
Each class consists of a group of 10 to 12 people and their dogs. These classes are designed for teaching you how to train your own dog in a group environment. They cover basic obedience on leash training, including basic commands: heel, sit, stay, down, come, leave it, and stand. All nuisance problems will be addresses, as well as socialization skills. We use no treats here, just love and praise. It is a lot of fun for you, your family, and your dog. Group sessions are 90 minutes once a week for seven weeks. No aggressive dogs allowed in groups.

What My Clients Say About Me
Dear John, I just wanted to let you know how well Nikko is doing. I followed up on all the training you gave Nikko and he is doing great. I especially liked the way you trained with kindness and praise, instead of the harsh treatment some schools have. You were sensitive to the individual dog’s personality and adjusted your training in order to keep the dog’s personality intact. I liked that. Thanks again for all the good advice and the individual handling. Good luck in Florida. At least you will not have to train in freezing weather.
John was my dog trainer when I had a collie named Phantom. She blossomed under his training. She loved to please and while I worked her during John’s class, she would prance and be so proud. She learned quickly by the methods used and never forgot the commands. John was excellent with her, and she always responded to his extra care. She was a bit psychotic when it came to grooming, barking, and howling with just the bath, but would do better if John was there. Phantom came to love John and his family and thought they were part of her family. John also used some hand commands that have come in very handy with her as well as my current dog as they aged and became hard of hearing. Can’t tell enough of how John excels at training dogs.
