Our group dog training classes at The Service Dog Team Academy are the perfect way to build strong foundations for your dog—whether you’re starting with basic obedience or working toward advanced certifications. These classes offer more than just training; they’re a great opportunity for your dog to socialize, develop life skills, and gain confidence in a fun, structured environment.
What We Offer
We follow the C.L.A.S.S. (Canine Life and Social Skills) curriculum, created by the Association of Professional Dog Trainers. This program focuses on real-world skills, helping dogs learn how to behave appropriately at home and in public. With three progressive levels—Bachelor, Master, and Ph.D.—we help guide your pup from the basics to mastery.
We also offer preparation and testing for the American Kennel Club’s (AKC) Canine Good Citizen (CGC) series, including:
AKC Canine Good Citizen Urban (Public Access)
AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy
AKC Canine Good Citizen
AKC Canine Good Citizen Advanced (CGCA)
