Did someone say Puppy Bowl?!

We are hosting a very special event next Friday September 19th from 5:30-8:30pm on our campus!

We are hoping that our community will come out in full support of who have had a couple difficult months of accruing vet bills and traumatic losses.

LoveBugs just rescued not 1 but 2 litters of puppies just in time for the football themed evening. So what better way to spend your Friday night than at a Puppy Bowl? 🏈

Even if you’re not looking to adopt a new pup, there will be fun activities and amazing auction items including a FREE group class with us, a basket of handmade doggy items (quilt/mat, bandana, etc), treats, and more!

It will likely be a night of a sweet puppy chaos and we *sincerely* hope to see you all there 💖

(Please note that personal dogs will not be invited into the training room where adoptable dogs will be. We recommend coming solo if you’d like to interact with the adoptable puppies)

Hi everyone,

If you have a dog and you’re expecting a new baby in your life or navigating the transition to mobile toddler, then you don’t want to miss this opportunity to learn from a qualified and Licensed Family Paws Parent Educator.

Don’t risk the safety of a child in your care. Learn as much as you can to prevent dangerous behavior together. It’s all about keeping both the child and the dog comfortable to increase the likelihood that they’ll grow up to be the best lf friends.

Our Story

Cassie and Olivia began training dogs together back in 2015. Their values and priorities have always lined up perfectly. While Olivia completed her Masters in Fine Art from LCAD, Cassie opened Cassie’s Dog Training in Laguna Niguel in 2017. After years of working and learning together, Olivia and Cassie finally made their teamwork official in 2018. Cassie’s Dog Training became the co-owned Clickstart Dog Training Academy.

They now service all of Orange County, as well as parts of the Inland Empire. Between the two of them they hold 3 different certifications: KPA-CTP, CPDT-KA, and FFTP. They value continuing education and training based on science. They work hard together to ensure you get the best possible training and outcome for your new puppy, new rescue, or long-time family member.

This is where positive relationships begin.
