Our group classes are held at Run Wild Dog Sports and Training Center (formerly Argus Ranch) in Auburn, WA. We offer a wide variety of classes for dogs of all ages, breeds, and skill levels. Each class provides you with individual attention and expert advice from a highly educated trainer with years of hands-on experience.

 

Puppies 8 weeks and older can begin their training journey in my AKC Star Puppy class, while dogs ages 16 weeks and older can join our Companion Manners classes, where the focus is on helping you raise a well-mannered dog at home and in the community. For dogs with extra enthusiasm, we also offer a class just for Rowdy, High-Energy Dogs. Every class not only covers obedience skills but also addresses your dog’s behavioral needs, giving you practical tools for real-life success.

 

We also offer Reactive Rover classes designed specifically to help dogs overcome fearfulness and reactivity toward other dogs. For those interested in advanced goals, we provide classes geared toward Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Certification, Therapy Dog preparation, and Rally Obedience.

 

Family participation is always encouraged, and we make sure our training is easy to follow with plenty of one-on-one support. Best of all, we use only positive, dog-friendly methods—never force, intimidation, or harmful equipment. Instead, we teach you how to motivate your dog through rewards such as treats, toys, attention, and real-life opportunities.
