Basic Manners Group Class

Spring 2026 classes are currently full. Trainer-guided online classes are available year-round and will be our primary offering during the summer months due to heat and travel. This keeps both dogs and owners safe and also allows you to continue training while on vacation.

In-person classes will resume in the fall, and I am currently accepting advance reservations for the fall class beginning Wednesday, September 5th at 7:00 pm. Limited spaces are available. Please use the registration form on this page to reserve your spot.

You don’t need a “perfect” dog — you just need the right guidance. Over 5 weeks, this supportive group class helps you build focus, calm behavior, and confidence through fun, easy-to-follow training. With hands-on lessons and personalized coaching, you’ll learn how to communicate clearly and manage real-world distractions so life with your dog feels easier, calmer, and more enjoyable.

Cost: $185 for the full 5-week course, which includes:

✔️Five weekly small-group lessons with hands-on training and focused attention for every dog

✔️Weekly emails with homework assignments

✔️Exclusive access to my Training Troubleshooter, an interactive tool that gives you personalized guidance

✔️A properly fitted training collar

✔️A bag of training treats

This class is open to puppies (over 4 months old with rabies vaccine) and adult dogs. However, it is not suitable for dogs that are overly aggressive toward people or other dogs. If you have concerns about your dog’s behavior or would like to get started sooner on training, our trainer guided online classes may be more appropriate for your dog, which start monthly.
