*Puppy Social Hour - Start your puppy off with some positive puppy play pals. This socialization experience is an hour of puppy fun and learning! This is a great option to do while you wait for Puppy Kindergarten class to start, or to do in addition to your puppy's class. We’ll watch the pups play, practice calming down, play some more, talk about a puppy focus topic, play some more, answer questions about raising a puppy, then end with more play time. Topics will include - mouthing and biting, housebreaking, polite greetings, socialization, recalls, possessiveness prevention, crate training, grooming, boredom busters.

**Puppy Kindergarten - This six week class is for puppies under 5 months old. Puppies can enroll puppies if they've had their first puppy shot. This is a great first class to start out with your puppy! We teach you the basics in how to raise and train your puppy. Learn to avoid common mistakes in training and management that can save you from future problems. Our focus is on building a relationship, keeping training fun and positive and making sure all of your training and behavior questions are answered. We will lay the foundation for all future training and will also have puppy socialization.
** The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program rewards responsible owners who take the time to train and socialize their new puppies. The program is a natural precursor to the AKC Canine Good Citizen® Test. “S.T.A.R.” stands for Socialization, Training, Activity and a Responsible owner, all of the things a puppy needs to have a good life! A 6 week class that will include valuable training tips for puppy owners - such as how to housetrain - and lessons on practical skills for puppies -such as coming when called. The program is open to all dogs. Puppies can enroll in AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy at any point up until their first birthday. At the end of the training course, the instructor will administer the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy test.
**Beginning Obedience - This class is for all dogs over 5 months.
This is a six week, on-leash obedience class for dogs of all ages. This class teaches basic obedience commands such as good leash manners, sit, down, come. We keep our classes small so you and your dog can get more individual attention during class.
The goal is to train the dog to respond using only one command and using a loose leash.
**Intermediate Obedience - This class expands on the training from the beginning class. We'll work toward off leash control and build distance, distractions and duration on all exercises. Some of the additional exercises include drop on recall, go to rug and finishes.
Gold Star's Beginning Obedience class is a prerequisite to the Intermediate class. You must have previously take the Beginning Obedience class at Gold Star to register for the Intermediate class or have instructor approval.
**Advanced Pet Obedience - This class will build on the skills learned in the intermediate class. We will continue to build Distance, Distractions and Duration. We will also be adding new and fun exercises including more distance control, jumping, rally skills and more!
**Calm Canine - From crazy to calm, barky to quiet, fearful to confident. This class is for dogs who need help managing reactivity and impulse control.
Learn techniques and skills to change your dog’s emotional and behavioral responses to stimulus and stressors. What are your dog’s triggers? Dogs? People? Bikes?
Course schedule - six sessions over eight weeks, allows for practice and progress. The first class is without dogs.
