Core Classes
Every Clickstart class covers our core curriculum in new and challenging ways along with other specific age-appropriate games that vary class to class. Our goal is to help you and your dog build a peaceful partnership based on a robust history of positive reinforcement.
Clickstart’s core curriculum covers sit & down, settling, stay, recall, leave it, polite greetings, loose leash walking and other essential canine skills.

Elementary School
(4-6 months)
$250 for 4 classes
At 4-6 months, this is an often perfectly attentive age to learn new skills for a smooth transition into adolescence. This is also the age where you might notice a sudden increase in barking, jumping up on people and surfaces, and challenging behaviors on walks like pulling, leash biting, zig-zagging, or putting on the brakes.
In Puppy Elementary, we work on fine-tuning your puppy’s skillset to address the pain points you might be experiencing while we continue positive exposure to their still relatively new world. If you want to set you and your puppy up for a lifelong harmonious partnership, this is the class for you!
Middle School
(6+ Months)
$250 for 4 classes
If your dog is between 7-24 months, they are in the dreaded “teenager” phase. You may be experiencing a sudden increase in issues like pulling on leash, jumping/humping and mouthing, inappropriate social behaviors with other dogs, excessive barking, and more - all while completely blowing off cues you swore they had mastered.
In Middle School, you will learn to channel your teen's boundless energy into a series of fun and practical skills that repair your bond and address those adolescent problem behaviors. If you’re feeling frustrated by your teenage pup’s “naughty” behaviors, this class will set you up for a calm and cooperative future with your dog!
High School
(12+ Months or Middle School Pre-Req)
$295 for 6 classes
High School is our foundational course for all of your big goals with your dog! This class is designed to work through common behavior issues like pulling on walks, jumping on guests, and dealing with distractions in the real world. Adult dogs may have had more time to rehearse these unwanted behaviors, but at Clickstart we know that you can teach an older dog new tricks!
If you’re ready to take your dog’s basics to the next level, this class will prepare both ends of the leash with expert training strategies. If your dog is less than 24 months with little prior training, we highly recommend starting in Middle School. High School is our pre-requisite for College regardless of your dog’s age.
