Obedience

At SRCC you start with either a Puppy or Terrible Teens class for foundationals skills. As you move through the obedience classes, distractions and durations will increase. Once you learn how to communicate with your dog then you can move on to manners based and sport classes. Our instructors will be able to help you with problems as they arise as your puppy grows and matures into an adult. Jumping back into obedience classes as your dog developes will only reinforce your bond and ability to move through the world in polite harmony with your dog.
