Classes

Regular Sessions

To better meet the needs of our students and instructors classes are offered of various lengths. Most classes are eight-weeks in length but there are some classes that last four weeks, others that last five weeks and others that last six weeks.

Pricing for classes is dependent upon the length of a class with the cost for a eight-week session (consisting of eight weekly, 45-minute classes) of $120.00, unless otherwise noted.

Our classes are taught using a combination of motivational reward methods including food and/or toys. Exceptions will be noted.

Review our Registration Policies for more information.

*Additional field fees apply for outside agility, scent work & tracking fields.

Dogs with Behavior Problems

Classes at the Winston-Salem Dog Training Club are designed for typical training. We are not able to deal with serious behavioral problems in the class setting. If you think your dog has aggression problems (growling, snapping, biting, attacking or attempting to attack a person or dog), please consult with your veterinarian for a referral to a professional trainer. The Club reserves the right to dismiss any dog considered by an instructor to be dangerous to other dogs or people.
