Intro to Beginner Novice Obedience
Prerequisites: Completion of our Intermediate Obedience class, or CGC title, or with instructor approval.
​
1 dog per handler
Beginner Novice class is a great “next step” for CGC dogs, since it works on advancing the skills your dog already learned – walking nicely on a leash, acting mannerly while being petted, performing a stay and coming when called. ALL dogs, including mixed-breeds, are eligible to compete in AKC Obedience trials through AKC Canine Partners. Beginner Novice is an optional titling Obedience class. All exercises are conducted on leash with the exception of the recall.
This class is designed to help you and your canine companion develop the essential skills needed to excel in the Beginner Novice obedience competition. Over the next six weeks, we'll cover a range of topics and training exercises to prepare you for the AKC Beginner Novice test.

Competition Heel

1 dog per handler
In this class you as a team with your dog will learn a beautiful heel with auto sits, left and right turns, change paces between normal, fast and slow.
There are a lot of skills your dog has to learn but 'heel" will be in any level of trials. "Heel" is complex, so we break it into elements and cover it in each class separately. However, each new element will be laid on the previous (learned) one.
Any dog (age 6 months and older) with any level of training is welcome.
