Dog Training Classes at Cascades Humane Society

Cascades Humane Society is excited to be offering 6-week dog training classes! Classes are held in the Community Room at CHS. Please see below for upcoming training classes and to register.

What to Expect

Adult Dog Classes (6 months & older): Learn how to work with your dog on basic manners such as waiting at doors, come & leashing up, loose-leash walking & attention, leave it, meet & greets, stay, settle, waiting for food bowl, and more. By the end of the course, the bond with your dog will have grown and they will have learned a new set of manners! Class with instructions on how to continue implementing what you have learned are sent home after every class. 

Puppy Classes (Under 6 Months): You and your puppy will be learning all about basic skills and important socialization. By the end of the course, your puppy will learn (but not be limited to) “sit”, “down”, and “stay” as well as feel extra confident and socialized. Watch as your bond with your puppy grows! You will be sent home after each class with instructions on how to continue implementing what you have learned. 

Sessions will be an hour long and meet each week on a specified day and time determined by the training class you are enrolled in.
