Our Tailored Group Classes
Leash Fundamentals
Unleash the power of communication with your leash. This class focuses on establishing a foundation of respect between you and your furry friend, working on skills like heel, and creating a dog that focuses on you, not lunging or pulling on the lead. Great for both beginners and those looking to strengthen basic leash manners.
Down Stay and Focus
In this class, we emphasize the importance of self-control. Learn to prevent your dog from jumping on guests or picking up items at home. The skills taught here also help build confidence in anxious and fearful dogs, promoting a calm, balanced demeanor.
Distraction and Distance
Step up your training with this more advanced class. We may go for walks through bustling areas of Orewa or practice down stays in various environments. Ensure your dog's basic leash skills and obedience are solid before joining this class.
Confidence Building
This class is all about controlled dog exposure. We work on drills that build a positive association with other dogs and humans, which is essential for any dog. This class aids in creating positive associations with the environment, people, and other dogs.
Recall
Master the art of recall in this class. We teach you how to use a long line and treats to establish a solid recall. Participants should have attended at least one Leash Fundamentals class before enrolling.

Group classes are ideal for dogs aged 5.5 months and older. This ensures that all dogs in the class have basic obedience training, making the class productive for everyone.
Each class is designed to focus on one dog-owner pair at a time for effective learning. If you have more than one dog, we recommend enrolling them in separate classes or scheduling private consultations.
Not at all! Our expert trainers are skilled in working with dogs at all levels of training and socialization. They will ensure your dog feels comfortable and can participate fully in the class activities.
For each class, bring your dog on a leash along with any special treats or toys that your dog particularly likes. These can be used as motivational aids during training.
Our trainers are experienced in managing and working with dogs that have different temperaments. However, for dogs with severe aggression or anxiety issues, we recommend starting with private training sessions before joining group classes.
Each group training class is 1 hour long.
While the frequency can depend on your dog’s needs and your own schedule, we recommend regular attendance to get the most benefit. Regular practice helps consolidate learning and promotes better communication between you and your dog.
