  • "Highly recommend, not only is Bethany an attentive trainer but she keeps her classes small so each pup gets individual attention. She communicates with owners and offers valuable advice."

    — Buffie Evans-Short

  • “Such a wonderful experience helping us acclimate our new puppy into our home. I don’t know what we’d do without Bethany!”

    — Jessica Nadig

  • “As a professional dog trainer, it is often hard to be able to get into a class. Bethany made me feel so welcome and has made this journey a lot of fun! I have now titled two dogs and enjoy class night so much that I do not let anything get in the way!!”

    — Heather Maio Allen

  • "Even in the class environment it feels like very individualized training. We highly recommend her classes and private training sessions to all friends with dogs!!!"

    — Jennifer M

Outdoor Obedience

This is a seasonal class that is wonderful for strengthening your training!

Dogs have to work around real world distractions; vehicles, deer, other dogs, birds, squirrels - all the things that easily distract our dogs and make proofing that obedience that much more challenging!

These classes are never the same, we are always trying and training new things and adding distance and duration to existing skills.

Dogs must have completed a canine good citizen level class to attend these sessions.

These classes are also $200 for 6 weeks.

Next class: CHECK BACK FOR SUMMER CLASSES

Rally Obedience

Rally obedience is a super fun twist on regular obedience. In rally, a course is set using different signs/stations that you walk through with your dog. Unlike typical competition obedience, in rally obedience competitions, you are able to talk and praise your dog as you work through the entire course, making it a fantastic beginner friendly way to start competing. By far my favorite class! Every week is a new course and we work on new skills.

Classes are 6 weeks and $200 and run in 6 week sessions throughout the year, typically with a 1-2 week break between.

Next class: See Master list above.

Dogs must have completed at least a level one obedience class to join rally as it IS a more advanced obedience class. As you and your dog perfect each level of rally you will be moved up to a more advanced class (if interested and spots are available).

Virtual testing every other month where you can compete (at the training center) for official AKC titles in rally obedience.

Fun Agility

This is a super fun class that really enhances the bond and connection you have with your dog - all while having fun!
This is a more active class so keep that in mind, you’ll need to be running with your dog. You must wear safe, closed toed shoes to this class (as you should always when training your dog). This class is really good for dogs that are a bit nervous as you work through various courses as a team.

Dogs must have completed at least a level one obedience class and MUST have a recall - dogs can also NOT be dog reactive in this class, unless you are willing to car crate between rounds.

Next session: See Master list

Cost $250.
