Group Classes

Get to know other pet parents just like you, get your dog some much needed interaction, and learn everything you need to know to enjoy your dog for many years to come!


​Our force-free, positive reinforcement and reward-based group classes are perfect for the family who wants to have fun and consistent guidance for training their dog. This makes training much faster and more effective than it would be on your own.


Our group classes are kept small (up to 5 dogs per class) so you can have questions answered quickly and get personalized attention.


We promote the use of training clickers, however, it is not required. 

We do not allow any aversive tools in class, including but not limited to: prong collars, choke chains, Weiss leashes, remote collars, etc.


**NOTE: If you would consider your dog "reactive" (barking, lunging, etc. at other dogs and people, even if friendly and just trying to say hi), please contact us PRIOR to registering for a class to make sure your dog is a good fit for a group class.

​

We are located at 6163 W Forest Home Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53220.​

We also hold group classes at Central Bark in Brookfield!
