All puppies enrolled in our Basic Obedience Class will automatically be participating in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Training Program.  This program rewards responsible owners who take the time to train and socialize their new puppies.  The program is the puppy level of the AKC's well-known Canine Good Citizen program.  S.T.A.R. stands for Socialization, Training, Activity & a Responsible owner, all of the things a puppy needs to have a good life.

The program is open to all dogs who enroll in our class, up until their first birthday.
