Have you completed basic training and are looking to take your dog’s skills to the next level? Our Out & About class is designed for graduates of our basic training courses or private lesson students who are ready to apply their knowledge in real-world situations.

This practical training opportunity allows you and your dog to meet up with a trainer in a variety of public locations—parks, stores, and downtown areas—where you can practice important obedience skills amidst real-life distractions. You’ll get the chance to refine your dog’s behavior and boost their confidence in the real world by practicing:

  • Walking calmly on a leash
  • Meeting new people
  • Respecting the space of other dogs
  • Focusing & recalling amid distractions
  • Socialization around new sights, noises, and smells

With the guidance of our experienced trainer, you’ll receive instant feedback on how to improve your communication with your dog, ensuring that you’re both on the same page when it matters most. These outings provide invaluable real-life practice, allowing your dog to get used to different environments and situations, while you gain confidence in handling them.

The Out & About class is fun and engaging for both you and your dog. Each session offers a new experience and challenge, from navigating crowds to practicing focus during everyday activities. It’s a fantastic way to strengthen the bond between you and your dog while helping them become more comfortable and well-behaved in public spaces.

Join us for this exciting next step in your dog’s training journey! Let’s continue building on the foundation you've created, strengthening your bond, while helping your dog thrive in real-world situations!
