We’re kicking off group classes at the AHSD Training Studio with The Good Citizen Games 🎉🥇🏆

It’s Canine Good Citizen prep with games, challenges and real-life practice. We’ll work on focus around distractions, leash skills, calm greetings, stays, recall and other skills from the AKC Canine Good Citizen test. The goal is to have fun in class and build skills that carry over into everyday life. CGC testing and evaluation will be available at on the final night of classes.

Each group is intentionally small so you and your dog will have room to learn, practice with multiple, experienced trainers and spend time with other dog people. Optional Open Studio time will be available after class with an added splash of nonsense and fun 🥳

•Wednesdays, 2 times available:

1:00 PM daytime group
6:00 PM evening group

•Orientation: November 18th
•Classes with dogs begin: December 2nd
•Eight meetings, with a holiday pause
•Maximum four dog-handler teams per group
•$200 per team

Look who’s officially a Puppy Prodigy graduate!

Bemer had a blast in class, from offering up his engagement and showing off his obedience skills to enjoying all the fun with his fellow Prodigy classmates. He was always ready to jump in, learn something new, and make the most of his time with us.

We loved having this sweet boy in the program and watching him grow along the way.

Congratulations, Bemer! We can’t wait to see what you do next!

Things got spooky at AHSD Canine today! 👻

Our pups showed up dressed to impress (and maybe collect a few treats)! From adorable costumes to some seriously creative looks, these four-legged trick-or-treaters made our day extra festive.

We think it’s safe to say the dogs understood the assignment! Who wore it best? 😉

Happy Howl-o-ween from all of us at AHSD Canine!

We’ll miss you, Molly K.! 💕

Molly was a daycare regular who absolutely LOVED her time at AHSD! From playing with all her friends to her never-ending games of fetch (seriously, she could go FOREVER 😂🎾), she always knew how to have the best day!

We’re sad to see her go but wish Molly and her family all the best on their new adventure in their new home state!

Once part of the AHSD family, always part of the AHSD family!

Help us give a BIG welcome to our newest Puppy Prodigy students! 🐾

Last week, we welcomed two adorable new faces to the AHSD Canine family!

Meet Tater, the Great Dane, and Georgie, the Goldendoodle!

These two are beginning their Puppy Prodigy journeys, where they’ll build confidence, develop foundational obedience skills, explore new environments, and learn all the important life skills that will help them grow into well-rounded companions.

We’re so excited to watch these pups learn, grow, and thrive throughout their time with us! Help us give Tater and Georgie a warm welcome in the comments!
