5 class pass - on site Group Classes - $200 (available to Members only)

If you’d like to also attend our in person classes you can add on our 5 class pass. By viewing the schedule below you can pick which dates, times and topics work best for you! You can request these classes by logging into your online portal or by contacting our admin team to book for you. We can’t wait to meet you and your pooch in person!

Note for in person classes: Dogs must be comfortable being around other dogs and people. Excited and playful is normal behaviour; lunging or signs of aggression towards others is better worked on with a private training session. Excessive barking that cannot be curbed by the instructor may result in removal from class and referral for private training. If you have questions as to whether your dog would benefit from this class, we'd be happy to discuss.

All dogs must be up to date on their vets schedule for Bordatella/Kennel Cough, Parvo/Distemper and Rabies.

Pack is valid for 60 days after first use. Packages must be used with an active membership. We do not offer refunds on packages unused prior to cancellation of a membership. In the event of a no-show for a booked class, a package credit will be deducted. Kindly inform us at least 24 hours in advance if you are unable to attend.

WANT TO SPEAK WITH A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL TRAINER? - $15

We also offer 15 minute phone consults to speak with a professional to determine which training option is right for you and your dog. You can contact our team via email at training@gooddog.ca to book a phone consult to ask any questions you may have! We look forward to working with you and your puppy soon!
