Take your pup’s skills to the next level! Designed for graduates of our Puppy Manners and Intermediate programs (or dogs with solid basic obedience), this advanced class builds focus, control, and handler skills—both indoors and out.
We’ll strengthen leash walking, introduce off-leash exercises, and work through real-life distractions with:
✔ Sit & down stays under high distractions
✔ On- and off-leash heeling
✔ Group recalls
✔ Outdoor training & community walks
Small class size — only 4 dogs per session for personalized attention.
This course is for puppies up to 1 year old who have taken Puppy Manners or already have basic training – it’s time to continue with training and have some fun while you do.
We start off by increasing your dogs' focus and control by introducing distractions – LOTS of them.
We’ll be working indoors in training centre and get to practice off leash-recalls, heeling, sit/stays and down/stays. We’ll add some fun and bring out the agility equipment to introduce them to jumps, tunnels and more.
Start your puppy off right with this fun and informative 6-week class!

You'll learn how to read your puppy’s body language, build a strong bond, and lay the foundation for lifelong good manners—all in a safe, social environment.

Tap into your dog’s natural hunting instincts with our scent detection classes! This fun and rewarding activity builds teamwork, boosts focus, and strengthens your bond. Great for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, each dog works one at a time using the Wintergreen scent. Classes follow SDDA guidelines and can prepare you for future competition—or simply provide an exciting mental workout your dog will love.
This class is a continuation of Fun with Scent Detection Level 1. Pre-requisite for this class is Fun with Scent Detection Level 1 class. We will continue on building on using your dogs’ natural ability to sniff. Teamwork makes this a fun activity for you and your dog. Although there will be multiple teams in the class, only one team searches at a time. In this Level of class, we will continue using different types of containers and searches for the scent will be at various heights. Scent work requires a lot of concentration which is why dogs get tired more easily. If your dog still loves to use their nose to sniff and you like to interact with your dog, you will both enjoy these classes. While in class, dogs are kept on their non-retractable leash and take turns locating a scent. Level 2 class uses the essential oil scent Pine.
A behaviour assessment is performed on every prospective daycare client, providing dedicated time to best understand your objectives for your dog’s day school experience (price on request). If the scheduled assessment day or time doesn't work for you, please contact us to arrange an alternative.
