Basic Training for The Real World (for dogs 4 months and older)
While most obedience classes focus on teaching commands developed for formal obedience competition, we know this is not the core of making a dog easy to live with. While it might be nice that your dog knows a formal retrieve; it will not stop him from charging out the front door, dragging you down the block and jumping on your guests. Come-Play-Stay! prides itself on providing a diversified training program with a curriculum geared for REAL LIFE. Our Smart Dog series of classes is fast paced, value packed and will guide you and your dog on a journey to good behavior and a great relationship.
