Private Agility Lessons

Hank-Weaving-2We offer private one hour and ½ hour agility lessons at the Brooklyn Dog Training Center with FrankieSarah and Amanda. This is a great option for dogs who find it difficult to work in a group class, handlers that want personalized attention or teams that want to try some agility without committing to a full course. 1/2 hour lessons are recommended for dogs new to the sport.

Day Training

If you would like your puppy or dog to have a training experience while you are at work, then Day Training is an excellent addition to your training program. Our trainer will meet with your dog and work on behaviors that can range from basics (sit, down, leave-it, counter surfing, etc.), to advanced obedience (polite leash walking, distraction training in public, etc.), to behavioral work (leash aggression, crate training, resource guarding, etc.). Your trainer will email you with details of each lesson. This service is only offered to Doggie Academy private or group training clients.
