REFINED in the REAL WORLD is an intermediate-level class for dogs who have completed basic skills training. The objective of this class is to practice training skills in different settings. This class is held primarily outdoors and meets at a different location each time. We practice loose leash walking, polite greetings, working around distractions, and learning new tricks.
The Class fee for 2025 is $40 per class (drop-in), $140 for a package of any four classes, or $400 for the whole year. For 2025, our REAL WORLD group meets on the second Saturday of each month, from 9:30 to 10:20 a.m., unless otherwise listed.
