Success Just Clicks Dog Training

Come run a Level 1/Starter or Zoom 1 rally course every week to practice your skills! Each week you will get three runs on the course and will get specific feedback from your instructor. You may get feedback on how to clean up performance, how to work on your pup's challenges, things to change to improve scores, things to practice to clean up skills, etc.

Depending on weather, dogs can be crated from their cars or crated inside during the walk through (where you walk the course without your pup to get familiar) and should practice being crated or quiet during class when it's not their turn. The benefit of having pups 'crate' from their cars is that it allows more for a trial type environment in class to practice that side of things.

Prerequisites--Humans must know the signs for WCRL/C-WAGS. Dogs must be comfortable in a class environment.

Dogs of all ages can join in on the fun that is trick training--Puppies through seniors can have fun with tricks! This is specifically a Novice level class--we often do a novice/intermediate, but this time around we are focusing on Novice alone. Your pup will learn fun basic tricks like spin, take a bow, peekaboo, paws up, 4 paws up, leg weaves, figure 8, jump for joy, and/or others!

Each class is custom created based on the dogs in class--not every trick is appropriate for all dogs, so we adjust based on who we have in class. There are tons of tricks to choose from and your pup will be a performer by the time they are done!

Kelly is a CTDI and can sign off on your DMWYD titles and your AKC trick titles

Prerequisites: Dogs/puppies must be comfortable working in a group class environment with dogs and people. Well-managed reactive dog who has been successful in group class behind a barrier can sign up.
