Thursdays Starting May 8th
Flyball Group Class
4 week class, limit 8 dogs, $155/dog

Due to high demand we are extending this class to two hours so more dogs can join us!6-8PM: This class is open for dogs for dogs of all levels in sport of flyball (including newbies!). Dogs will be worked in 5-minute blocks based on their experience level. Each dog will get two turns. In-between turns please plan to crate out of your car. Flyball is a team sport so when you aren’t running your dog it is expected you will be in the building helping other dogs with restraining, boxloading, props, etc., this includes after your dog’s turns are done. For this class we will need help putting away equipment at the end of class (very quick if everyone helps, max 5 minutes).

PLEASE READ: In our current space we only have room for ONE lane with 50ft of runback. We run on turf. If your dog needs special props, balls, etc. please let us know ahead of time so we can make sure we have them or we can make sure you bring them for your dog (we have most things!). We can provide distraction/arousal if needed in our shorter area of our space (it’s L shaped currently and the lane goes in the long part of the L), however we only have one flyball box. Any questions please let us know!

What to bring: for this class we will be working dogs for both food and toy reinforcements!

Prerequisite: Basic obedience or sports foundation class, if you do not have these please email us first (we maybe able to accommodate!). if your dog is reactive please contact us first.

Wednesdays Starting April 23rd
Agility For Fun Group Class
6 week class, limit 6 dogs, $225

6-7PM: This class is for those we are interested in doing agility with their dog just for fun (not for competition, however you will learn most of the skills if you ever did want to compete with your dog and could easily transfer to a competition class). We will introduce your dog (if they haven’t been already) to the obstacles in agility including: jumps, tunnels, A-frame, dog walk, teeter, and weave poles. Dogs who are reactive please reach out before booking. Dogs will work one at a time in this class on the agility course so please be prepared to either work your dog out of the car or have control over them when it is not their turn (we have crates and place beds available for use).

What to bring: for this class we will use food and toy reinforcements so please bring both!

Prerequisites: Basic Obedience or similar group class, your dog will need to be able to work off leash with distractions. If you have any questions on whether your dog is ready for this class or they are reactive, please contact us to set up a consultation first to make sure this class is appropriate for them.
