All of our orientation classes are currently being held remotely. However, we'd be happy to have you drop by our facility anytime we're open to give you a tour and answer any questions you have. Just let us know when you'd like to come by so we can have someone available to speak with you. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thank you! Laura

Agility Fundamentals is the first class in the Agility series. This six-week class is geared toward the dog/handler team whose long-term goal is to compete, learn a new sport, or just have fun. This course covers equipment and team communication skills. As the handler's and dog's skills progress, they will be introduced to sequencing, polishing obstacle performance, building the dog's confidence and enthusiasm, and introducing the handler to basic course analysis skills. This is a foundation course and will require homework to ensure the dog's long-term success. The cost of this six-week class is: $249. The second class in the series is Agility Fundamentals II. This six-week class is geared to the dog/handler team that is continuing on from the Fundamentals level. This class costs: $249. You can also purchase the bundle for both classes at: $459.

Generally classes start at about $30 an hour. But, you can buy packages and save money. The first two sets of puppy classes are purchased for each entire course. After that you get punch cards and can enroll in one week at a time. So, for example as we moved from the second course Surviving Adolescents to the more advanced classes, we only spent a week in each of the intermediate classes before we were able to start the canine good citizen classes. Since I didn't have spend weeks in classes my dog didn't need, I feel like we saved money. If all goes well we will complete the good citizen classes in 4 or 5 sessions. Thus saving time and money. I have been VERY happy with the training methods that are used and drive from east of Raytown. I am currently training my new pup with Laura and she trained my 13 year old pup when he was a baby and I have a lot of respect for her and her methods
