Great starts lead to fantastic finishes!  In this class, we will teach you how to clearly and effectively communicate with your dog. Our basic obedience class teaches on-leash obedience with a taste of what it will be like when your dog is totally off-leash.  We teach all the basic commands -- sit, stay, down, heel and come (the recall).  We will also teach you to use and enforce all of these commands with hand signals.  After you and your dog have learned these skills, we will introduce everyday distractions to the training.  After all, your not going to have your dog in the quiet of your home all the time.  We teach you how to teach your dog manners and social skills every dog should have.  We train your dog . . . for life.
