Class Information and Registration


Well trained dogs are happy dogs and they are less likely to pull you down to the ground, run into the street, less likely to run away from home, less likely to eat or chew something that will cost you money for unnecessary surgery.

You have seen our well behaved alumni are seen in the real world walking down Fifth Avenue, behaving in Central Park, they lay down and stay while their owners enjoy a nice cup of coffee in public. They come when called at the local dog park.

We are proud of our group classes because our group classes offer the highest graduation standards than any other school in the Greater New York Metropolitan Area. This saves you time and money. You and your dog will be prepared for real world events such as going to the park, visiting the vet, going shopping or to dinner. One hour per session, your dog will leave the class prepared to move into off leash training. This class offers our graduation guarantee. If your dog doesn't pass AKC Canine Good Citizen test at the completion of the course, you are entitled to repeat it at no charge.
