Conformation Skillbuilding I
Self Study – $50 USD
“Conformation classes” usually involve a lot of walking around in circles, stopping, and showing your dog’s teeth to somebody. That’s fine as far as it goes, but what about all the skills the dog needs to show himself to his best advantage?

Conformation Skillbuilding 2
Self Study – $50 USD
The best handlers always look like they’re doing nothing at all, that they’re only there because it isn’t legal for the dog to be in the ring alone. That’s because the best handlers have dogs trained so the handler is able to sit back and let the judge and gallery see the dog on display, rather than a handler struggling to get a dog to stand still.

StructurE and Movement
Self Study – $50 USD
What’s in there anyway? Little wheels? Why is one dog graceful and another one clumsy? What’s a fiddle front and why should you care? Will that puppy grow out of those cow hocks? Why DOES that dog walk sideways all the time? And why do little injuries always seem to happen on the front end?
Come join us on an adventure into the structure of our canine companions!

Training Levels – Level 2
Gold – $260 USD | Silver – $130 USD | Bronze – $65 USD
If Level 1 was kindergarten, Level 2 is all of elementary school.
Everything you and the dog learned in Level 1 now becomes more solid and more useful. You’ll both be introduced to many new behaviours, with all training resting firmly on the basics from Level 1.
The “4 Ds” – distance, duration, difficulty, and distraction – will now make up a large part of your training.

Training Levels – Level 3
Gold – $260 USD | Silver – $130 USD | Bronze – $65 USD
If Level 1 was kindergarten, Level 2 is all of elementary school, and in Level 3 we’re getting into high school – making the standard behaviors not only reliable but useful in competitions and in daily life.
You’ll both be introduced to many new behaviours, with all training resting firmly on the skills from Level 2. In Level 3 you’ll also start to see the enormous potential each behaviour has to support what the dog knows about other behaviours.

Training Levels – Level 4
Gold – $260 USD | Silver – $130 USD | Bronze – $65 USD
The Training Levels are a structured course designed to teach your dog the basic skills that every dog needs for success as a pet, sport, working dog, or all three. These classes teach the trainer how to teach and how to prepare the dog to perform willingly under increasingly challenging circumstances.
As we begin the fourth and last Level, we are seeing the difference in willingness and competence in class dogs, and a similar, if not even better, increase in training knowledge, enthusiasm, and competence in their trainers.
