For dogs and puppies of any age. Yes, old dogs CAN learn new “tricks!” And they will, together with you, have a fun time doing so in this class. The online, live format is ideal for keeping distractions to a minimum. Groups are kept small (max. 7 dogs) so everyone gets some individualized attention. This is a 4-week class that helps you lay the foundation or level up. It’s never too late!
For dogs of any age who want to learn additional skills like leash walking, fun and enriching games, and advanced mat work! The offerings change seasonally, so check back often! (Please note: Virtual Puppy or Virtual Dog School is a prerequisite for these classes.)
Private Training is ideal for highly dedicated dog guardians who have specific goals to accomplish, whether it’s basic manners and foundational behaviors for a newly adopted dog or puppy, or a behavior that is problematic, we’re here to set you onto a path of training success. Dog pulling on leash? Barking and lunging? Jumping up on people? Not coming when called? For these issues and many more, we’re here to help. We will help you understand your dog’s emotions and learning that drive the behaviors, and how to change or manage those behaviors in a kind and compassionate way.
In-Person
Custom-designed visits to meet your dog’s needs. A certified trainer will visit your dog for 45 or 60 minutes. We take your dog on mentally and physically satisfying Sniffari walks, play brain games and do enriching activities, and train manners and tricks using positive reinforcement. Come home to a happier dog!
COMING SOON! For dogs 4 months and older (as long as they’ve had 3 rounds of puppy shots and first rabies vaccine). Each week, we will learn and practice different skills in a small group (up to 8 participants). Leash walking skills, coming when called, focused and calm behavior around distractions, leave it, drop it, watch me, fun tricks, games, etc. Any skill level is welcome, our trainers will help you progress from wherever you are. Learn new skills, fine-tune others, proof skills to distractions, and keep your excellent skills sharp! This is always a fun and positive time to bond with your dog.
PLEASE NOTE: your dog must be comfortable working around other dogs. For safety reasons, we don’t allow dogs to meet during our session (on-leash meetings are difficult for many dogs). If your dog prefers to keep a small distance away from other dogs (needs at least 6ft), we provide a yellow bandana for them to wear during class. Respect other dogs’ bubbles, especially if they are wearing a yellow bandana – give them at least 6 ft of space. One dog per handler. You are responsible for your dog’s safety. All park rules must be obeyed, including the leash law. Help us be good stewards of this public space that we have special permission to use.
Join us in person, every Saturday at Berkeley Park in NW Denver (meet just west of tennis courts). Ongoing, weather permitting, weekly drop-in training sessions. You must register in advance.
