Upcoming Events!
Join us for a 2-hour Happy Ratters Workshop, offering both working and auditing spots! This workshop is perfect for teams brand-new to the sport, but even returning students will benefit from the detailed review and hands-on coaching.
Cheryl will cover the rules, safety, and basics of Happy Ratters, followed by working teams receiving three individual runs that include rat introductions, training for the bridge and burrow, and practicing ring searches. A great opportunity to build confidence, learn the sport, or brush up on foundational skills!
What we do
Our Services

Group Training Classes
Start your puppy off on the right paw with Puppy Pre-K, then build essential skills through House Dog Obedience Levels, working up to Canine Good Citizen preparation. Or, mix things up with our K9 Nose Work, Happy Ratters, and other specialty classes, offering fun and engaging ways to strengthen your bond with your dog while learning new skills!

Personalized Services
Whether you’re looking for in-facility, in-home, or virtual support, our personalized services are designed to provide one-on-one attention tailored to your dog’s unique needs. Work directly with our certified dog trainers through private or virtual lessons, or choose a Stay & Train package—similar to Board & Train, but without the stress of kenneling your dog. Our trainers will help lay a solid foundation of behavior for your puppy or adolescent dog, conveniently in your home while you’re busy or at work.
