Obedience Classes

K-9 Studio offers an opportunity for interested dog owners to learn how to train their pets into lifelong compatible companions in a quiet one class at a time atmosphere. Classes are offered for all levels of training, and all ages of dogs, by experienced trainers with a genuine interest in helping you achieve the most from your dog through motivational methods.

Our location on Brock Street allows us to hold 2 classes at a time, either entering Door 1 or Door 2 from our parking lot on Tarbutt Street. These classes are separated by a sound muffling curtain, allowing for an easy listening and learning environment.

Our classes are small, and allow for individual attention from our knowledgeable, qualified instructors.

Private lessons are available. If interested, please inquire.
