Air Scent - one day classes $35
(Train your dog to use his nose to find a person by following emitted airborne particles.  Your dog will then learn to alert you to the "lost" person  and take you to them.  We feel all dogs benefit from a job, even if it’s solely recreational.  This is a great way to get your dog’s brain working and allow him more freedom to explore life off leash and be social and under control.  Your dog must like people, have a solid "come when called" This is an essential skill if your dog gets lost...he’s better trained to come find you).

Training AT the Park- one day classes $30

 Tricks & Triumphs: Physical and Emotional Confidence Building for Fearful, Nervous and Reactive Dogs: $165
(Specifically for dogs with either emotional or physical challenges. Fun for dogs with arthritis, missing limbs or eyes, balance disorders, past joint injuries, or anything that would make regular agility too dangerous or scary. All levels of physical obstacles and tricks build confidence in those "wallflower" dogs - dogs who are shy, feral, or fearful in new situations. email shari.elkins@tcctb.com
