Group Class FAQ

 

FAQ’s

How many other dogs will be in the class?

It depends on the class! Our Reactive Rover class maxes out at 4 dogs while some classes like Agility max out at 10.

What vaccinations are required?

All dogs must be up to date on all age appropriate vaccinations. This includes Bordetella, Rabies, Distemper and Parvo. Proof of vaccinations must be submitted. Puppies may begin class as soon as they receive their SECOND round of vaccinations (the initial and one booster). We also excpet titers!

What does "Dog Friendly" mean?

Dog-friendly means that your pup is comfortable and gets along well with other dogs, showing no signs of aggression. While group play is limited to the Power Puppy class, close contact with other dogs may not be suitable for every dog. Participants should also be able to stay relatively calm around other pups. If your dog feels uneasy or becomes overly excited in the presence of other dogs, they may benefit more from our private training lessons, where we can tailor the experience to their individual needs.

When can I start?

We have new classes starting every 3-6 weeks (even if it’s not up to date on our website). Please call or text the front desk at 210.899.1688 for our next class dates. 

What do I need to bring to class?

Every dog will need motivation to learn. For most dog, treats do the trick. But because we will be learning in a stimulating environment, we recommend HIGH VALUE treats. Think outside the box and consider things like chicken, cheese, or hot dogs. A little will go a long way!

All dogs must also be on leash with a well-fitted collar or harness. Retractable leashes, e-collars, prong collars or choke chains will not be permitted in class. 

Lastly, every pet parent will need to come ready to learn, work and have fun!

Where are classes located?

Classes take place indoors in our spaceous warehouse! We are located at 3701 San Pedro Ave, 78212

Why should I choose group classes?

Group classes are a great way to get a lot of learning done with a smaller price tag. Group classes are appropriate for dogs who are beginning training, as well as dogs who have already learned the behaviors but need to practice amidst distractions.

What if I have to miss a session?

We’re unable to offer makeup classes, but don’t worry! At the end of each class, we’ll email weekly homework and a detailed recap to keep you on track. If you’d like additional support, you can schedule a 30-minute private lesson (for the current private lesson fee) to reinforce what was covered.
