Class Absence / Refunds:
Class attendance is essential to the
training process. Each class builds
on the next so class absences cannot
be made up during the regular
training sessions. If possible we
will offer private make up classes
at a reasonable fee at the trainers
convenience.
Because our classes are limited to
10 participants, we cannot offer a
refund once class has started. We
will offer a discount on an
additional class to those who cannot
complete classes signed up for but
not completed.
Females in season cannot participate
in class. If your dog comes in
season during class, a discount on
an additional class will be
offered.
Classes will be cancelled due to
weather if the Florida Department of
Transportation (FlaDOT) has posted
limited driving warnings. Such
class cancellations will be made up
the following week, based upon
weather conditions.

Each dog must have current
vaccinations for Rabies, DHL, Parvo

AKC
Rally is the new dog
sport that is taking the
nation by storm, a
successful stepping stone
from the AKC Canine Good
Citizen® program to the
world of obedience or
agility. Rally offers both
the dogs and handlers an
experience that is fun and
energizing. The canine team
moves at their own pace,
very similar to rally-style
auto racing. Rally was
designed with the
traditional pet owner in
mind, but it can still be
very challenging for those
who enjoy higher levels of
competition. Those who
complete this class will see
a marked improvement in
their dogs focus and heeling
and should be ready to
compete in AKC Novice Rally
if they so choose.
