Obedience Training
Our obedience training classes teach fundamental commands and handler skills over eight weekly Wednesday sessions. Designed for dogs of all ages, the program follows AKC regulations to build reliable responses. Participants gain confidence through structured exercises that strengthen communication and control.
Rally Training
Our rally training courses guide handlers through AKC-style courses emphasizing teamwork and precision. Suitable for graduates of basic obedience, the eight-week format builds advanced off-leash skills. Dogs learn to navigate numbered stations while maintaining focus and enthusiasm throughout each weekly session.
Scent Work Training
Our scent work training introduces dogs to odor detection following AKC competition standards. Open to all breeds, the eight-week curriculum develops natural searching abilities systematically. Handlers learn to read canine body language while building trust through engaging search games weekly.

Our club hosts licensed AKC obedience and rally trials each August at our Castroville facility. Competitors showcase trained skills across multiple class levels judged by approved officials. Spectators welcome to observe high-level performances demonstrating precision and partnership in competitive environments.
