Let’s start with some fun training with your puppy! Getting a puppy is exciting but it can quickly become overwhelming if you don’t know what to expect or it’s been a while since you have had a puppy.
Smart Dog Dallas classes take the time to teach you about dog ownership and ensure you are prepared to be one-step ahead of your new four-legged family member. Our training focuses on how to teach YOU to train your puppy in the fundamentals. You will have useful training information that can be put in place immediately. Training and working with your dog is a lifetime commitment. You’ll come out of our classes with many motivating training tips that you’ll use today, tomorrow and many years to come.

“I have been to an obedience class and my dog sits and does all that stuff but she won’t stop barking and pulls on the leash and jumps on people and won’t come when there is another dog around and…”If you have said any part of this sentence, or something similar, you are going to love Rover Review classes! At Smart Dog Dallas, we have met many dogs and owners who have gone to obedience classes and all that “knowledge” is just not connecting into real life situations. This class retrieves the basics and wakes up the inner Lassie of your dog’s true self. Well… we at least get his true character directed with good results. In class, you will re-establish basic obedience and then move into more distractive situations, achieving complete attention on you. Rover Review is not a beginner’s class; it’s for the dog that knows the basics but is not responding better each day or (amazingly) getting worse. Training is a lifelong communication and this is a great course to revamp both of you. To find out more about our group class schedule, please contact us!
This is a great class, not only because you and your dog will have fun, but there are several secondary beneficial results that come from teaching your dog to perform tricks and to play with you in an educational and structured setting:
