The Urban Dog Obedience Course

Does your dog understand basic obedience commands when at home or in familiar surroundings but then struggles when out and about?

​

A Canine Understanding is happy to offer a unique training program that is specifically geared towards helping you advance your dogs manners and obedience within our urban environment.

 

Every week we will meet in a new location around the city and work on furthering your dogs understanding of the commands, and overall manners while teaching you how to communicate with your dog and build trust, respect, and relationship. We will work through distractions, unexpected situations, and the rapidly changing dynamics that occur within each location. 

 

Each class is limited to 4 dogs and a max of 2 handlers to ensure individual attention is received when needed. The course runs for 6 weeks, and we meet once a week for an hour. Sessions are held throughout the Vancouver area with the first session being held at

Pacific Community Park located at

1501 NE 164th Ave, Vancouver, WA 98684

​

The cost of the course is $225.
