Heeling Games

Improve your dog's focus and obedience while having fun together. Boost your dog's recall and response to cues in high-distraction environments.

Using various fun dog training exercises (including heeling to music), learn how to teach your dog brisk, focused obedience, and heeling off-leash using positive training methods.

We also include long-distance recall training by distractions and quick responses to sit/down/stand cues while you are moving (helpful for Rally Excellent and Formal Obedience)


Enroll now and give your dog the gift of joyful, focused heeling!

Basic Obedience Skills

Your dogs should know basic skills such as sitting, loose-leash walking, and using treats to reinforce their excellent behavior. If not, our Family Companion classes would be a great place to start!

Social Behavior

Dogs must be friendly or neutral toward other dogs and people. Before joining the class, aggressive behavior or extreme shyness behaviors should start with our Private Training. 

Equipment

Your dog should wear a buckle, Martingale collar, harness, and a non-retractable leash.  If you are using prong collars, or other corrective training equipment, you'll benefit from starting with our Private Classes.

Health and Vaccinations

All dogs must be at least six months old, healthy, and not displaying symptoms like coughing or sneezing. Dogs that are ill should remain at home. 

Dogs in Season

Female dogs who have recently been in season are permitted in class but must have completed their cycle before attending.
