Here are some upcoming classes that will build your dog’s skills and increase their reliability for commercial work. Tricks classes are a fun way to teach new behaviors and work on putting distance between you and your dog when asking for behaviors. Rally is a fun obedience discipline that helps build a positive relationship with your dog while working obedience commands. All classes by BaeBea’s Dog Training are held at Wet Dog Wellness Center, 432 SE 91st Ave, Portland. Check BeaBea’s Dog Training full schedule for more classes and times.
