Course schedule

K-9 Courses are now scheduling on a limited basis.  Class enrollments are smaller than before and Covid protocol is in effect.  We appreciate your support of the club and understanding as we continue to work our way toward more offerings.  Class scheduling is posted below and kept current.  When a class interests you, remember that enrollment is limited and spots may not be available for long.  In the event you miss out on a class, keep watching for future classes to schedule.

Here are some book recommendations and resources to help with behavior issues for both puppy and dog owners:

New Puppy owners – Books to get: 
Life Skills for Puppies by Zuich & Mills;

Perfect Puppy in 7 Days by Dr. Sophia Yin, D.V.M. and Animal Behaviorist.  Dr. Yin’s web site is filled with lots of free training articles and video clips.

Dog Owners -  Book: 
How To Behave So Your Dog Behaves by Dr. Sophia Yin, D.V.M.  This book teaches how dogs learn and how owner’s reactions direct both wanted and unwanted behaviors. 
​
