For answers to any questions regarding registration, please email our registrar.

There are classes throughout the week. For a complete listing of daily activities switch to calendar view. To register for a class session , click on the class you are interested in on the calendar below.

When attending classes, if your dog needs to pee or poop they MUST use the dog run in the corner of our parking area.  This is not optional.  If your dog needs grass or a fence, stop at a park somewhere before arriving at our building to let the dog "take care of business". 

PARKING RESTRICTIONS: All daytime parking must be in front of our training building at the back Northeast corner of the parking lot. Evening parking can include the area in front of the Ice Company.  No exceptions.  Parking is limited and must be rotated between classes.  Please limit visiting at the cars after class as we need to make those spots available for the class that follows you.  PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY IN THE ENCLOSED PARKING AREA!
