Our philosophy of training is built around positive training through trainer enthusiasm, use of treats, toys, and lavish praise.

You can ALWAYS find our UP TO DATE Calendar of classes and events, with descriptions costs and how to reserve and pay for your spot on our website, www.4RK9s.com

Our club operates on a volunteer basis. Members and guest instructors offer classes, fun matches and seminars and we host agility, obedience, rally and nosework trials at a variety of locations throughout the year. You can also find information on becoming a member on our website. We are a UKC Club (United Kennel Club), a NADAC Club (North American Dog Agility Council), and recently became a CPE Club (Canine Performance Events). Our agility and obedience classes are taught in UKC, NADAC, AKC (American Kennel Club) and CPE formats. We have members who have UKC, NADAC, AKC and CPE titles. Our Nosework classes include features from UKC and NACSW (and, hopefully, AKC soon, as well)

Questions? Leave a message at (319) 366-5668 or email us at [email protected]. We'll return the call or email as soon as possible (be patient, it might take a few days).

The 4rk9's agility trial is approaching so mark your calendar and see the link below to enter. Beginning handlers, Saturday morning would be an ideal day to give NADAC a try. Tunnelers is just tunnels and Grounders is just hoops and tunnels. What a great way to start small and see what you can do on a full course.
