Puppy Classes

At OpBarks, we’ve been working with puppies and their people for over 20 years and over 10,000 dogs. That’s a loooot of puppies. We’ve been successful and often referred to because we do things differently. We focus on real-life and lifestyle learning, and want our people to understand how to successfully live with their dogs, not just how to “train” them.

Our 4-week Puppy Foundations Class focuses on building clarity in your communication system, learning how to use play to build fun, focus, and impulse control, starter leash work, and finding the elusive “off switch.” We will help you troubleshoot nipping, biting, dropping items, jumping, and preparing your dog for handling, as well as how to prevent unwanted behaviors early on.

Join us in Puppy Foundations classes where we will build the communication system for puppy training and learn starter life skills, meeting weekly for 4 weeks. $325

“OpBarks is by far The Best!!! Excellent trainers and facilities, great for boarding, superior with helping prevent and correct inappropriate behaviors. I would not have such well-behaved and awesome dogs (Rhodesian Ridgebacks age 6 and 1) without the OpBarks team. Take your puppy there right away. The sooner, the better. My two started puppy training at 10 weeks and not only am I very grateful but I also love when people compliment me on how well behaved they are. They are both happy, sweet dogs and they love OpBarks!”
