This class is an advanced competition-level class, but you don't need to have competition goals to train your dog in advanced obedience. The more you work with your dog, the more your dog knows, the stronger the bond and the better the behavior. These classes reflect consistent training off lead, directed jumping, retrieving, scent work and out-of-sight long sits and downs. This class will prepare your dog to compete in obedience trials for CDX, UD, UDX and OTCH titles. 

Requirements:  Must have Sub-Novice & Novice Obedience or equivalent training.
