Due to the wonderful turnout, we are excited to offer another Calm Clinic!

This is a fun 4-week class in which you will learn games and skill sets designed to teach your pup to remain calm when likely to be excited or distressed. Some examples of the distractions and triggers we will work through are: knocking on the door, doorbells, loud vehicles, vacuum cleaners, barking dogs, familiar and unfamiliar people and dogs walking by, etc.

Directly following this class we will offer a fun 4-week Trick class. Eight tricks that will be sure to entertain you and your friends will be taught. You will have the opportunity to earn your AKC Novice Trick Dog Title after the class.

Each class is 30 minutes long with a 15-minute break between them.

If you would like to join the class please fill out a registration form indicating the class you are signing up for and send in your payment to reserve your spot. When we receive both, we will email a confirmation of enrollment.

We hope you can join us! It will be a lot of fun and your pup will learn so much!

Amazon invited Cosmo to visit their facility! He greeted employees at shift change and everyone was so appreciative of his friendly spirit.

Our pal, Cosmo, is a Therapy Dog certified by the Alliance of Therapy Dogs. A lot of training, practice, and testing goes into becoming a therapy dog - but it is worth it!

We can help you and your dog to become a therapy dog team, too!

Cosmo loves it. As the saying goes, “he’s never met a stranger.”

In a study of brain activity, walking a poodle made people more relaxed, brushing the dog improved concentration and playing with her had both effects.
