Level I – Basic Obedience (12 Weeks)

Build clarity, structure, and real-world control with your dog.

​

Level I Basic Obedience is a structured 12-week program designed to create a reliable communication system between you and your dog. This is an immersive owner-handler class, meaning you are actively learning alongside your dog so the results carry into everyday life — not just the classroom.

 

All work is done on-leash, focusing on precision, timing, and accountability so your dog understands that commands are not optional.

​

What Your Dog Will Master

 

Dogs in this program work toward mastering 17 core obedience commands and skills, including:

  • Heel

  • Halt

  • Sit

  • Down

  • Stand

  • Stay

  • Finish

  • Right, left, and reverse turns

  • Leave-it

  • Recall

  • Distraction work in real scenarios

  • Structured engagement with the handler

  • And additional obedience foundations that build reliability

​

Dogs are taught to respond and execute within 2 seconds, creating clear expectations and dependable obedience.

​

Class Structure
​

Attend at your own pace within the 12-week window. Multiple class times make it easy to stay consistent:

  • Tuesday: 10 AM or 6 PM

  • Wednesday: 6 PM

  • Thursday: 10 AM or 6 PM

  • Saturday: 10 AM

​

Graduation & Certification

Your pup graduates after passing a final exam demonstrating reliable obedience and handler control.

LEVEL II Advanced OBEDIENCE

Level II – Advanced Off-Leash Obedience (12 Weeks)

Take obedience off the leash — without losing control.

​

Level II Advanced Off-Leash Obedience is a structured 12-week program designed to transition your dog from “does it on leash” to does it anywhere. This is an immersive owner-handler class, meaning you work directly with your dog under trainer guidance so the skills become repeatable in real life — not just in class.

​

Training builds reliability under distraction, improves precision, and strengthens your leadership so your dog listens even when the environment is more interesting than you are (rude, but true).

​

Enroll in Level II after completing Level I (or after evaluation if your dog already has a solid foundation).

​

What Your Dog Will Master

 

Dogs in this program advance obedience into off-leash control and higher distraction environments, including:

​

  • Off-leash heel + focused position

  • Automatic stops/halts and smooth transitions

  • Sit, down, stand, stay with increased duration and distance

  • Reliable recall under distraction

  • Place / stationary control (where applicable to your curriculum)

  • Direction changes (right/left/reverse turns) with precision

  • Leave-it / impulse control around food, dogs, people, and movement

  • Handler engagement in stimulating environments

  • Proofing drills that mimic real-life chaos (because life does not care about your training plan)

​

Dogs are held accountable to respond and execute within 2 seconds, maintaining the K9 Safety standard for obedience that actually works.
