We offer group and private
agility lessons for everyone - from playing for fun to the top
levels of competition (also fun!!). We have two great
instructors, who love dogs and agility. Liz Neuman, has been
Our second instructor is Renee King. Renee King has been training in agility since 1998. Her teammates are ADCH Hamlet MX MXJ NAC NGC FDX CGC, who is a wild and crazy seven year old Jack Russell Terrier who lives for agility and Racket AAD RM OA AXJ, who is Hamlet’s 4 year old brother. Renee has always been involved with animals especially dogs and horses. From training her childhood Dalmatians to jump broomsticks, to riding dressage, hunter/jumper, and rodeo horses, Renee exhibits a genuine love of animals and working with them. And to add to that, she enjoys teaching humans as well! She is employed as a high school teacher in Rosenberg, Texas and enjoys it!
Our agility field is fully fenced and has lights for nighttime use. All of our equipment meets AKC, NADAC and/or USDAA regulations, and is adjustable to use in training new dogs.
We welcome all breeds and mixed breed dogs to come play! Only fun and positive methods are used.
Agility classes:
Beginner Class: Our six-week beginner agility class introduces dogs to many skills they will need to learn to play safely and successfully in agility. Dogs are introduced to some of the equipment. This class also incorporates many obedience-for-agility concepts that will help your pet in the more advanced classes and at home. Our beginner class is $125, with classes starting soon!
Intermediate Class: This class expands on the lessons learned in the Beginner Class. The dogs are introduced to all of the equipment and begin sequencing, as well as furthering their equipment skills and the owner's handling skills. The intermediate class is $110 for six weeks.
Advanced Class: This class further expands on the previous two classes. In this session, the dogs learn more advanced techniques, more distance work, and more complicated sequences. We will hone the handler's skills and prepare the team for Novice competition. This six week class is $95.
Competition Class: This class focuses on preparing and practicing for competition. If competition is not your goal, this class is also a great way to keep challenging you and your dog's mind after progressing through the other classes. You pre-pay for this class monthly, at $60 per class. *We currently have competition classes ongoing on: -Tuesday evenings at 8:00 pm -Thursday evenings at 7:30 pm If you're interested in drop-in classes, you may join us a class at a time for $20/class. Please let me know ahead of time if you're planning on coming, so I can let you know if we have to cancel due to weather.
Private Lessons: Private lessons are available for $45 per half-hour or $60 per hour and are available during any time of the day. The half hour may be split between two dogs belonging to the same person, and the hour may be split between two people, each with up to two dogs. Please call to schedule your lesson and discuss what you'd like to work on.
