Beginner Agility Foundation Dog Training
The  focus of this group class is on safety and fun while building a good foundation for future agility training adventures.  Every dog begins on leash.  After careful consideration and observation by the All Fours training staff, some dogs may earn the privilege of being off leash.  Others will enjoy their agility experience while on leash.  Dogs will gain confidence, focus, coordination and physical exercise and so will the handlers!

Rally Obedience  Private Training
Rally makes a great entry-level class for both obedience and agility. But don't be fooled! Rally can still be a challenge. You must work closely as a team as you negotiate the course, heeling from sign to sign and performing one of the many different exercises. Some are quite complex (there are over 50 different exercises to choose from).  It's a great way to build confidence in a shy dog or to teach enhanced focus skills to those dogs who are easily distracted and find conventional obedience a bit too boring.
