Dog Training: Sophomore Class (Oakland)

In this class, you start to take your training to the next level! Once you and your dog have a good grasp of the Freshman Class basics and have had some practice learning in a group environment, we can start pushing the envelope. Want to be able to send your dog to a station and have them wait until released? Want a controlled environment to proof your dog’s new recall cue? Looking for a place to practice heel position past distractions? Sign up for Sophomore!
