Training Classes for Dogs

Whether it is jumping, chewing, leash manners, recall or you’re just looking for good behavior, we can help! Many pet owners struggle to make their dogs a well-behaved part of the family. In fact, one of the main reasons dog owners surrender their dog is because of behavior problems. We are here to help you reach your training goals!

We offer a wide selection of affordable classes for all ages and behavioral needs. Whether you are looking for your dog to socialize with others, learn their manners, master a new skill, or just have fun, we have what you are looking for!

Looking for other options? The training classes are updated regularly, so please check back often! If you need immediate assistance please scroll down to book a Private Consult or email behavior@nhspca.org.

Please note – Classes will be evaluated one week prior to the start of class to determine whether or not there are enough participants to run class.  Low participation may result in cancellation of a class/workshop.  Please help us avoid class cancellations by registering for class/workshop in advance of one week.
