COURSE DETAILS

In this final level of the C.L.A.S.S. Program, dogs are expected to perform some rather advanced behaviors, such as backing up, being polite at a simulated dog-friendly cafe or the like and doing behaviors when asked by other people!


This level is really stretching your dog, but they can do it! By building off of the skills they already have, setting them up to succeed, designing the exercises so they are engaging and fun, your dog will have no issue acing the C.L.A.S.S. PhD test items.
