Good Manners Obedience Training
General Information
Small class size offers individualized attention. Discounts available for adopted rescue dogs on your first class (proof of adoption required). To participate in group classes, dogs must be current on vaccinations and live inside the house with the family. If your dog lives primarily outside, you must commit to keeping your dog inside the house to be accepted into a class. There are NO REFUNDS. If you sign up for a class, it is expected that you are prepared to commit to that class. However, you may be offered a transfer to a different class date if you are unable to complete your class as planned. If your dog has a serious aggression issue with dogs or people, please consider Private Training. Unless otherwise noted, all classes are held in Northeast El Paso. Dina is a National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors (NADOI) Certified Instructor, an AKC Approved Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Evaluator, and a Therapy Dogs International (TDI) Certified Therapy Dog Evaluator.
