The advanced class is designed for those people who want a greater challenge for their dog(s) and wish to obtain a higher level of reliability. The goals of this class are to further strengthen the foundations that were learned in the previous obedience class. We will continue to focus on basic commands with ever increasing challenges and distractions. Additional commands taught if interested include: Heel from A Far, Finish, Stand and Place. The environment of this class allows for dogs and handlers of varying levels to continue to work toward their ultimate goals.
