Puppy Classes

At My Dancing Dog we only use positive training methods to teach, Basic Puppy Obedience, Tricks and Canine Musical Freestyle classes. Focussing on these positive methods while having fun teaching your dog strengthens the bond between the two of you.  

Tricks and Canine Musical Freestyle – This class incorporates both of them.  Musical Freestyle is a fun dog sport where the handler and dog dance together to a choreographed piece of music. You may want to take this class so you can just teach your dog some fun tricks with no intention of doing Musical Freestyle.  That is totally fine. (You do not need to know how to dance to do this sport.) Visit the video page to see a Canine Musical Freestyle routine. Whatever your reasons for taking this class it will be fun for you and your canine partner. You will be exercising him both physically and mentally while strengthening the bond between the two of you.

This class is 45 minutes long, starting at 7:00 pm on Monday evenings.  There are 8 classes in a session.  The class is small with everyone at different levels in their training and working at their own pace. Basic obedience such as sit, down, stand, and stay, along with a basic level of focus and heeling skills, are desirable for the class. The class will be held at the Harold Simpson Hall in Summerland.
