Obedience training is not just for the pet but also the owner. It is important for an owner to know how to properly communicate with their pet. Most behavioral issues stem from miscommunication or unknowingly conditioning the dog to repeat an undesired behavior.

Here at SAVC we offer multiple classes, as well as private sessions, to help you train your pet to be a more obedient member of the family. At SAVC we do our very best to match you and your pet with the most suitable training regiment. . Not every pet responds to large group training environments, so we like to limit our classes to five pets per session. This allows you to have more one-on-one time with the trainer in order to get specific needs met.
Classes at SAVC are also flexible and designed to meet the needs of busy families. Classes meet one night a week for one hour, and we even have a make-up policy if you happen to miss one.
