You love your dog
But sometimes training feels confusing, or overwhelming
When your dog reacts, it can feel overwhelming & embarrassing.
We understand how stressful that is.
Many dogs aren’t “bad”
They’re under-fulfilled, unclear, or unsure how to navigate the world.
And many owners feel stuck between:
Not knowing what class is right
Feeling overwhelmed by too many options
Worrying their dog won’t get enough attention in a group
Our Approach To Group Classes
We do things differently.
Small groups only
(max 6 dogs)
Purpose-driven classes
Not crowded rotations
Clear start and
end dates
Real coaching
not cookie-cutter drills
We focus on communication, confidence, and connection—so training actually sticks.
This is The Scentsible Method
Safe → Seen → Secure

FAQs for Group Class Dog Training
Are group classes safe for reactive dogs?
1
Yes — when appropriate. Classes are structured with safety, space, and regulation in mind. Some dogs may need private lessons first.
My dog has never taken a class. Is this too much?
2
No. We start slow and progress at your dog’s pace.
Do I need special equipment?
Just a six-foot leash, a calm mindset, and willingness to learn.
