Once dogs have mastered the basics, intermediate and advanced classes further refine their skills.

These sessions may take place offsite at dog-friendly public locations, allowing dogs to practice obedience and focus amid real-world distractions.

These classes, which also run for five weeks, teach dogs to respond reliably in busy environments, perform longer stays, and execute more complex behaviors.

They are ideal for owners seeking greater control over their pets in public places or at home.

Dog and Owners that excel in this class are eligible to test for the AKC CGCU and/or AKC CGCA Certificates (AKC test and title fee NOT including in class pricing).  The fee for testing is $25.00 per test.

Dogs and Handers that pass the CGCA and or CGCU test(s) are able to apply for an AKC Title through AKC’s online title application portal. Costs and fees for these title application are determined by and payable to AKC.
