      <description>&lt;p data-start="83" data-end="246"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Open to students who are currently qualified for Agility 3A or 3B &lt;span data-start="202" data-end="209"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt; who hold active Key Club privileges.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;&lt;strong data-start="368" data-end="491"&gt;Rally-O is a sport, a game, and a powerful way to strengthen your bond with your dog while sharpening obedience skills.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;In this introduction to Rally Obedience, handler-dog teams will develop the foundational skills needed to successfully navigate Rally courses. These exercises are not only fun and engaging—they also enhance communication, trust, and teamwork between you and your dog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="763" data-end="1091"&gt;Whether you're looking to reinforce your training, prepare for competition, or just enjoy a new challenge together, Rally is an ideal complement to regular obedience classes. It builds technical ability and focus in a dynamic, supportive environment, and offers a great way to stay active and connected with your canine partner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

We will go through Attention Focus in the Heel as a tool, Independent Down Stays (with duration), Stand for Exam, Wait-in-Motion, Sit-in-Motion, Down-in-Motion, and left and right side finish.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class focuses on trouble-shooting the Beginner Obedience performance as well as task-analysis to focus on repairing incomplete commands and removing inadvertent body language and leash cues that are dragging your performance down. Designed as a team-building class, all members are invited to step up their game!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course is designed with the Obedience Competitor in mind and will focus primarily on preparation for Companion Dog Trials. All candidates will be working primarily off-leash and must have off-leash concepts mastered. The class will set up and practice specifically for trials covering, registration, treat reduction and all concepts necessary to create well-mannered competitors. Weekly class goals will depend on the skill of the student competitors and may vary from class to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SKILLS REQUIRED: Super Advanced candidates must be able to demonstrate positive control of their dogs with and without the leash. The handler must be able to hold the dog’s Attention Focus for 3 minutes in the presence of distractions with the minimal use of treats; 3 minute SIT STAY away from the dog; 3 minute DOWN STAY without the presence of the handler; must be able to demonstrate a proper return and a RECALL off-leash without a long line. Strong Leave It and Wait are a must, as are STAND, FINISH, FIGURE-8 and HEEL (in an off-leash environment).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are still mastering off-leash concepts but who demonstrate good skills in ADVANCED are welcome as long as their dog does not pose a significant risk to the dogs that are already completely off-leash. Training Tabs may be utilized. Long Lines may be used. Please bring your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs at this level should already possess the Canine Good Citizen Urban award.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;For those ready to title their dogs for Novice (CD-V), this class will pace you through the steps including how to set up an obedience trial map and strategies for successful submissions. We will begin recording in Week One. Bring your phone or other device to record your own runs. Copies of the AKC Obedience Maps and Virtual Trial Regulations will be provided.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Students will be permitted to repeat this class at regular cost (no discounts) if necessary to achieve this title if they continue to meet class requirements. This class does have a waiting list so Instructor approval is required to repeat to make sure that those that are on the waiting list are enrolled before repeating teams can be enrolled. Waiting list handler teams should remain enrolled in Advanced Obedience until they are accepted into this class to maintain their dog's readiness for trialing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bring your sense of humor and good sportsmanship attitude because the Virtual Trialers are a supportive team that wants to enjoy the virtual trialing experience!&lt;/p&gt;

Along with proofing targeting, contact and flat work skills, the teams will begin short sequences and handling drills. While some work will be on lead, most of the course work will be off lead. Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Please bring lots of soft treats, water, and A CRATE. Dog-handler teams should expect to repeat Agility 2 Beginner. Dogs should do teeter and navigate 6 weave poles before moving up to Agility 3.

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;In this introduction to Rally Obedience, handler-dog teams will develop the foundational skills needed to successfully navigate Rally courses. These exercises are not only fun and engaging—they also enhance communication, trust, and teamwork between you and your dog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="763" data-end="1091"&gt;Whether you're looking to reinforce your training, prepare for competition, or just enjoy a new challenge together, Rally is an ideal complement to regular obedience classes. It builds technical ability and focus in a dynamic, supportive environment, and offers a great way to stay active and connected with your canine partner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

Weekly class goals will depend on the skill of the student competitors and may vary from class to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SKILLS REQUIRED: Super Advanced candidates must be able to demonstrate positive control of their dogs with and without the leash. The handler must be able to hold the dog’s Attention Focus for 3 minutes in the presence of distractions with the minimal use of treats; 3 minute SIT STAY away from the dog; 3 minute DOWN STAY without the presence of the handler; must be able to demonstrate a proper return and a RECALL off-leash without a long line. Strong Leave It and Wait are a must, as are STAND, FINISH, FIGURE-8 and HEEL (in an off-leash environment).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are still mastering off-leash concepts but who demonstrate good skills in ADVANCED are welcome as long as their dog does not pose a significant risk to the dogs that are already completely off-leash. Training Tabs may be utilized. Long Lines may be used. Please bring your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs at this level should already possess the Canine Good Citizen Urban award.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Students will be permitted to repeat this class at regular cost (no discounts) if necessary to achieve this title if they continue to meet class requirements. This class does have a waiting list so Instructor approval is required to repeat to make sure that those that are on the waiting list are enrolled before repeating teams can be enrolled. Waiting list handler teams should remain enrolled in Advanced Obedience until they are accepted into this class to maintain their dog's readiness for trialing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bring your sense of humor and good sportsmanship attitude because the Virtual Trialers are a supportive team that wants to enjoy the virtual trialing experience!&lt;/p&gt;

Along with proofing targeting, contact and flat work skills, the teams will begin short sequences and handling drills. While some work will be on lead, most of the course work will be off lead. Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Please bring lots of soft treats, water, and A CRATE. Dog-handler teams should expect to repeat Agility 2 Beginner. Dogs should do teeter and navigate 6 weave poles before moving up to Agility 3.

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;&lt;strong data-start="368" data-end="491"&gt;Rally-O is a sport, a game, and a powerful way to strengthen your bond with your dog while sharpening obedience skills.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;In this introduction to Rally Obedience, handler-dog teams will develop the foundational skills needed to successfully navigate Rally courses. These exercises are not only fun and engaging—they also enhance communication, trust, and teamwork between you and your dog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="763" data-end="1091"&gt;Whether you're looking to reinforce your training, prepare for competition, or just enjoy a new challenge together, Rally is an ideal complement to regular obedience classes. It builds technical ability and focus in a dynamic, supportive environment, and offers a great way to stay active and connected with your canine partner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

We will go through Attention Focus in the Heel as a tool, Independent Down Stays (with duration), Stand for Exam, Wait-in-Motion, Sit-in-Motion, Down-in-Motion, and left and right side finish.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class focuses on trouble-shooting the Beginner Obedience performance as well as task-analysis to focus on repairing incomplete commands and removing inadvertent body language and leash cues that are dragging your performance down. Designed as a team-building class, all members are invited to step up their game!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course is designed with the Obedience Competitor in mind and will focus primarily on preparation for Companion Dog Trials. All candidates will be working primarily off-leash and must have off-leash concepts mastered. The class will set up and practice specifically for trials covering, registration, treat reduction and all concepts necessary to create well-mannered competitors. Weekly class goals will depend on the skill of the student competitors and may vary from class to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SKILLS REQUIRED: Super Advanced candidates must be able to demonstrate positive control of their dogs with and without the leash. The handler must be able to hold the dog’s Attention Focus for 3 minutes in the presence of distractions with the minimal use of treats; 3 minute SIT STAY away from the dog; 3 minute DOWN STAY without the presence of the handler; must be able to demonstrate a proper return and a RECALL off-leash without a long line. Strong Leave It and Wait are a must, as are STAND, FINISH, FIGURE-8 and HEEL (in an off-leash environment).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are still mastering off-leash concepts but who demonstrate good skills in ADVANCED are welcome as long as their dog does not pose a significant risk to the dogs that are already completely off-leash. Training Tabs may be utilized. Long Lines may be used. Please bring your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs at this level should already possess the Canine Good Citizen Urban award.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;This class will continue to build on the skills learned in Agility Foundations. Along with proofing targeting, contact and flat work skills, the teams will begin short sequences and handling drills. While some work will be on lead, most of the course work will be off lead. Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Please bring lots of soft treats, water, and A CRATE. Dog-handler teams should expect to repeat Agility 2 Beginner. Dogs should do teeter and navigate 6 weave poles before moving up to Agility 3.

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;In this introduction to Rally Obedience, handler-dog teams will develop the foundational skills needed to successfully navigate Rally courses. These exercises are not only fun and engaging—they also enhance communication, trust, and teamwork between you and your dog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="763" data-end="1091"&gt;Whether you're looking to reinforce your training, prepare for competition, or just enjoy a new challenge together, Rally is an ideal complement to regular obedience classes. It builds technical ability and focus in a dynamic, supportive environment, and offers a great way to stay active and connected with your canine partner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

We will go through Attention Focus in the Heel as a tool, Independent Down Stays (with duration), Stand for Exam, Wait-in-Motion, Sit-in-Motion, Down-in-Motion, and left and right side finish.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class focuses on trouble-shooting the Beginner Obedience performance as well as task-analysis to focus on repairing incomplete commands and removing inadvertent body language and leash cues that are dragging your performance down. Designed as a team-building class, all members are invited to step up their game!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course is designed with the Obedience Competitor in mind and will focus primarily on preparation for Companion Dog Trials. All candidates will be working primarily off-leash and must have off-leash concepts mastered. The class will set up and practice specifically for trials covering, registration, treat reduction and all concepts necessary to create well-mannered competitors. Weekly class goals will depend on the skill of the student competitors and may vary from class to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SKILLS REQUIRED: Super Advanced candidates must be able to demonstrate positive control of their dogs with and without the leash. The handler must be able to hold the dog’s Attention Focus for 3 minutes in the presence of distractions with the minimal use of treats; 3 minute SIT STAY away from the dog; 3 minute DOWN STAY without the presence of the handler; must be able to demonstrate a proper return and a RECALL off-leash without a long line. Strong Leave It and Wait are a must, as are STAND, FINISH, FIGURE-8 and HEEL (in an off-leash environment).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are still mastering off-leash concepts but who demonstrate good skills in ADVANCED are welcome as long as their dog does not pose a significant risk to the dogs that are already completely off-leash. Training Tabs may be utilized. Long Lines may be used. Please bring your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs at this level should already possess the Canine Good Citizen Urban award.&lt;/p&gt;

Waiting list handler teams should remain enrolled in Advanced Obedience until they are accepted into this class to maintain their dog's readiness for trialing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bring your sense of humor and good sportsmanship attitude because the Virtual Trialers are a supportive team that wants to enjoy the virtual trialing experience!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>ENS133 Behavior Clinic (Demaree Clay) (04/29/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Training is fun, training changes your relationship with your dog and training changes your dog.&amp;nbsp; But is training enough?&amp;nbsp; Do you have behavioral concerns beyond the scope of obedience exercises?&amp;nbsp; Come to this informative clinic, offered once a session to discuss relevant treatment plans to help shape your canine's behavior.&amp;nbsp; Housetraining, Stealing Objects, Counter-Cruising, Excessive Barking, Door Greetings, Jumping up, Toys and Inappropriate Chewing, are just a few of the subjects on the table.&amp;nbsp; This Clinic is purely a Q&amp;amp;A.&amp;nbsp; Your questions will be answered by our Certified Master Trainer and animal behavior expert. Attendees are not required to stay for the entire clinic once their concern has been addressed.&amp;nbsp; Come and go as you please.&amp;nbsp; This Workshop is for humans only, but dogs may attend if they remain manageable during discussions.&amp;nbsp; While we may discuss Reactivity, Human-directed Aggression and Dog-to-Dog Aggression, we regret that these dogs cannot attend the discussion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Please bring lots of soft treats, water, and A CRATE. Dog-handler teams should expect to repeat Agility 2 Beginner. Dogs should do teeter and navigate 6 weave poles before moving up to Agility 3.

The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This unique play opportunity will teach you how to "ground" your tiny dog during play and to create trust in the working partnership of you and your dog. Littles who are well grounded and have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Wallflowers class! We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. This class will not have moderated entrances and exits, instead the owner will be on the floor with their dog. If you cannot sit on the floor, this class will not benefit your dog. Event Rules are available on-site. Come join this unique play experience!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;&lt;strong data-start="368" data-end="491"&gt;Rally-O is a sport, a game, and a powerful way to strengthen your bond with your dog while sharpening obedience skills.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="368" data-end="761"&gt;In this introduction to Rally Obedience, handler-dog teams will develop the foundational skills needed to successfully navigate Rally courses. These exercises are not only fun and engaging—they also enhance communication, trust, and teamwork between you and your dog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="763" data-end="1091"&gt;Whether you're looking to reinforce your training, prepare for competition, or just enjoy a new challenge together, Rally is an ideal complement to regular obedience classes. It builds technical ability and focus in a dynamic, supportive environment, and offers a great way to stay active and connected with your canine partner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course is the continuation of the Obedience relationship with the addition of advanced concepts of established commands including: long-line assisted Sit- and Down-Stays with distance, long distance Attention Focus, Heel-free with automatic Sit, off-leash Figure-8s, working in crowds for a tighter Heel, off-leash Stand for Exam, Rock Solid recalls with a formal approach and working up to Sit- and Down-Stays with the Handlers leaving the ring.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class takes it to the edge using the simple scientific concepts introduced in the Beginner and Intermediate(s) classes. Are you ready?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

We will play Beginner Obedience games, practice perfect CGC greetings, create flawless figure 8’s and lay a strong foundation for going off-leash with your obedience! We will go through Attention Focus in the Heel as a tool, Independent Down Stays (with duration), Stand for Exam, Wait-in-Motion, Sit-in-Motion, Down-in-Motion, and left and right side finish.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class focuses on trouble-shooting the Beginner Obedience performance as well as task-analysis to focus on repairing incomplete commands and removing inadvertent body language and leash cues that are dragging your performance down. Designed as a team-building class, all members are invited to step up their game!&lt;/p&gt;

Along with proofing targeting, contact and flat work skills, the teams will begin short sequences and handling drills. While some work will be on lead, most of the course work will be off lead. Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Please bring lots of soft treats, water, and A CRATE. Dog-handler teams should expect to repeat Agility 2 Beginner. Dogs should do teeter and navigate 6 weave poles before moving up to Agility 3.

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;This class is for dogs at least 6 months of age. The class will focus on establishing basic behaviors and good training habits for a lifetime of learning, utilizing the separation of the 3Ds (Distraction, Duration and Distance) for learning clarity with a strong emphasis on the “Timing of the Mark” and how treats are used within established science for maximum efficacy. This is an excellent class to begin your leadership skill development.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;Beginner is an ideal class for preparing to obtain your CGC. Exercises include: Attention Focus, refining Loose Leash Walking (and getting ready for the next step of leash walking), Sit at the side, Down at the side, Stay, Leave It (food and objects), Wait, Handling / Sit for Exam, Stand, plus games to create a solid foundation for Come.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;S.T.A.R. graduates will find that this class builds upon their excellent skills and yet challenging and informative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;This course is designed with the Obedience Competitor in mind and will focus primarily on preparation for Companion Dog Trials. All candidates will be working primarily off-leash and must have off-leash concepts mastered. The class will set up and practice specifically for trials covering, registration, treat reduction and all concepts necessary to create well-mannered competitors. Weekly class goals will depend on the skill of the student competitors and may vary from class to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SKILLS REQUIRED: Super Advanced candidates must be able to demonstrate positive control of their dogs with and without the leash. The handler must be able to hold the dog’s Attention Focus for 3 minutes in the presence of distractions with the minimal use of treats; 3 minute SIT STAY away from the dog; 3 minute DOWN STAY without the presence of the handler; must be able to demonstrate a proper return and a RECALL off-leash without a long line. Strong Leave It and Wait are a must, as are STAND, FINISH, FIGURE-8 and HEEL (in an off-leash environment).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are still mastering off-leash concepts but who demonstrate good skills in ADVANCED are welcome as long as their dog does not pose a significant risk to the dogs that are already completely off-leash. Training Tabs may be utilized. Long Lines may be used. Please bring your own.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs at this level should already possess the Canine Good Citizen Urban award.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Students will be permitted to repeat this class at regular cost (no discounts) if necessary to achieve this title if they continue to meet class requirements. This class does have a waiting list so Instructor approval is required to repeat to make sure that those that are on the waiting list are enrolled before repeating teams can be enrolled. Waiting list handler teams should remain enrolled in Advanced Obedience until they are accepted into this class to maintain their dog's readiness for trialing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bring your sense of humor and good sportsmanship attitude because the Virtual Trialers are a supportive team that wants to enjoy the virtual trialing experience!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;This course will continue building on the foundation of OCC’s Beginner class moving towards randomizing reward structure and differentiating between bribery vs rewards. Initial focus will be on transitioning perfect loose leash walking into the more formal Heel with the automatic Sit, emphasizing Halts and pace changes as well as directional turns. Integrating the process of helping your dog learn to generalize and hold longer commands, we will work on Attention Focus duration, Sit Stay durations, Down Stay durations, and the Stand (without Handler support) and work towards Handling in the Stand-Stay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Included are the Intro into a Figure-8 exercise, perfecting the Finish, Long Line Recalls, the Greeting Exercise Game and other Learning Challenges for a fun learning experience. Heavy emphasis on preparing for the CGC-Exam, but challenging enough for the dog that has already earned his/her CGC!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part 2 of a 2-part class. This indoor class will build on the skills learned in AGC 100 Agility 1 Foundations: Part A in teaching dog-handler teams foundational agility skills and safety. The curriculum is based on shaping behaviors through the use of positive reinforcement. Activities include start line stay, body awareness and flexibility, impulse control, introduction to contact end behavior, targeting/nose touch, directions, and handling “on the flat.” Dogs will continue to interact with equipment such as wobble board, tunnel, table, 2x2 weaves, and wing jumps (bars will be on the ground for puppies or very low for adult dogs). Dog-handler teams will begin sequencing with multiple obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs must be fitted with a flat buckle collar and a six-foot leash. No choke, pinch, gentle leaders or corrective harnesses will be allowed. Owners need to bring lots of small, soft treats and A CRATE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;NOTE: This class will not meet April 5th (Easter) or May 3rd. Class will begin April 12th.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;The CGC Program is a two-part program that is designed to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Teach responsible dog ownership to owners&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Certify dogs that have the training and behaviors needed to be reliable, well-behaved members of their families and communities&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs who pass the CGC test have demonstrated they are under good control and are safe around people and other dogs. The purpose of the CGC Program is to ensure that our favorite companion, the dog, can be a respected member of the community because it has been trained to be well behaved in the home, in public places, and in the presence of other dogs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CGC, CGCA, TKN, and TKI testing are typically scheduled together in a single session. If the test you are interested in is full please continue to register for that test and join the waitlist. Capacities between the tests in a single session may be adjusted to accommodate the specific tests people have registered for.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;. Because the total testing time depends on attendance and test types, arrivals after 4:00 PM may limit testing availability.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;AKC Trick Dog is one of AKC’s most popular training programs because trick training is fun for both dogs and their trainers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tricks are behaviors that are designed to entertain others. AKC Trick Dog ranges from very simple novice tricks such as teaching your dog to get in a box on cue, to complex tricks that are several behaviors chained together in one exciting sequence. The Novice Trick Dog test confirms demonstration of at least 10 novice skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

That’s what our Placement Test is for! Our evaluator will walk you and your dog through a few simple exercises to gauge their current training level, focus, and confidence, and help determine which OCC class is the best fit.

&lt;p data-start="485" data-end="515"&gt;Why take a Placement Test?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-start="516" data-end="704"&gt;
  &lt;li data-start="516" data-end="584"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="518" data-end="584"&gt;Ensures your dog is in the &lt;span data-start="545" data-end="582"&gt;right class for their skill level&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="585" data-end="629"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="587" data-end="629"&gt;Sets you both up for &lt;span data-start="608" data-end="627"&gt;success and fun&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="630" data-end="704"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="632" data-end="704"&gt;Saves time and frustration (no jumping ahead or getting stuck behind!)&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;It’s not about passing or failing—it’s about finding the perfect spot so you and your furry friend can make the most of your training journey.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;Contact the Training Director at training@occdogtraining.org for registration.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;.

&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This unique play opportunity will teach you how to "ground" your tiny dog during play and to create trust in the working partnership of you and your dog. Littles who are well grounded and have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Wallflowers class! We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. This class will not have moderated entrances and exits, instead the owner will be on the floor with their dog. If you cannot sit on the floor, this class will not benefit your dog. Event Rules are available on-site. Come join this unique play experience!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Shy dogs unite! Come play with other shy dogs! Wallflowers who have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Adult Play class! Hopefully our Wallflowers will graduate from “Shy Play” and move up into the Adult Play Class. This class may also be appropriate for some of our smaller or younger dogs. We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. Entrances and Exits are moderated. Event Rules are available on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;**To assure valid vaccinations and to regulate the classes, all participants must be registered in order to play.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>ENS133 Behavior Clinic (Demaree Clay) (07/01/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Training is fun, training changes your relationship with your dog and training changes your dog.&amp;nbsp; But is training enough?&amp;nbsp; Do you have behavioral concerns beyond the scope of obedience exercises?&amp;nbsp; Come to this informative clinic, offered once a session to discuss relevant treatment plans to help shape your canine's behavior.&amp;nbsp; Housetraining, Stealing Objects, Counter-Cruising, Excessive Barking, Door Greetings, Jumping up, Toys and Inappropriate Chewing, are just a few of the subjects on the table.&amp;nbsp; This Clinic is purely a Q&amp;amp;A.&amp;nbsp; Your questions will be answered by our Certified Master Trainer and animal behavior expert. Attendees are not required to stay for the entire clinic once their concern has been addressed.&amp;nbsp; Come and go as you please.&amp;nbsp; This Workshop is for humans only, but dogs may attend if they remain manageable during discussions.&amp;nbsp; While we may discuss Reactivity, Human-directed Aggression and Dog-to-Dog Aggression, we regret that these dogs cannot attend the discussion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

That’s what our Placement Test is for! Our evaluator will walk you and your dog through a few simple exercises to gauge their current training level, focus, and confidence, and help determine which OCC class is the best fit.

&lt;p data-start="485" data-end="515"&gt;Why take a Placement Test?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-start="516" data-end="704"&gt;
  &lt;li data-start="516" data-end="584"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="518" data-end="584"&gt;Ensures your dog is in the &lt;span data-start="545" data-end="582"&gt;right class for their skill level&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="585" data-end="629"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="587" data-end="629"&gt;Sets you both up for &lt;span data-start="608" data-end="627"&gt;success and fun&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="630" data-end="704"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="632" data-end="704"&gt;Saves time and frustration (no jumping ahead or getting stuck behind!)&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;It’s not about passing or failing—it’s about finding the perfect spot so you and your furry friend can make the most of your training journey.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;Contact the Training Director at training@occdogtraining.org for registration.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;. Because the total testing time depends on attendance and test types, arrivals after 4:00 PM may limit testing availability.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;AKC Trick Dog is one of AKC’s most popular training programs because trick training is fun for both dogs and their trainers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tricks are behaviors that are designed to entertain others. AKC Trick Dog ranges from very simple novice tricks such as teaching your dog to get in a box on cue, to complex tricks that are several behaviors chained together in one exciting sequence. The Intermediate Trick Dog test confirms demonstration of at least 10 intermediate skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For more information, please visit the &lt;a href="https://www.akc.org/sports/trick-dog/" title="AKC Trick Dog" target="_blank"&gt;AKC website&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CGC, CGCA, TKN, and TKI testing are typically scheduled together in a single session. If the test you are interested in is full please continue to register for that test and join the waitlist. Capacities between the tests in a single session may be adjusted to accommodate the specific tests people have registered for.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;.

AKC Trick Dog ranges from very simple novice tricks such as teaching your dog to get in a box on cue, to complex tricks that are several behaviors chained together in one exciting sequence. The Novice Trick Dog test confirms demonstration of at least 10 novice skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CGC, CGCA, TKN, and TKI testing are typically scheduled together in a single session. If the test you are interested in is full please continue to register for that test and join the waitlist. Capacities between the tests in a single session may be adjusted to accommodate the specific tests people have registered for.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;. Because the total testing time depends on attendance and test types, arrivals after 4:00 PM may limit testing availability.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;The CGC Program is a two-part program that is designed to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Teach responsible dog ownership to owners&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Certify dogs that have the training and behaviors needed to be reliable, well-behaved members of their families and communities&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs who pass the CGC test have demonstrated they are under good control and are safe around people and other dogs. The purpose of the CGC Program is to ensure that our favorite companion, the dog, can be a respected member of the community because it has been trained to be well behaved in the home, in public places, and in the presence of other dogs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This unique play opportunity will teach you how to "ground" your tiny dog during play and to create trust in the working partnership of you and your dog. Littles who are well grounded and have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Wallflowers class! We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. This class will not have moderated entrances and exits, instead the owner will be on the floor with their dog. If you cannot sit on the floor, this class will not benefit your dog. Event Rules are available on-site. Come join this unique play experience!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Hopefully our Wallflowers will graduate from “Shy Play” and move up into the Adult Play Class. This class may also be appropriate for some of our smaller or younger dogs. We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. Entrances and Exits are moderated. Event Rules are available on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;**To assure valid vaccinations and to regulate the classes, all participants must be registered in order to play.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;All dogs over 8 months and under 8 years of age are eligible to play! We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. Entrances and Exits are moderated. Event Rules are available on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. Age exceptions can be granted on a case-by-case basis (contact the Instructor if you would like to be considered for an exception). If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;**To assure valid vaccinations and to regulate the classes, all participants must be registered in order to play.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>ENS133 Behavior Clinic (Demaree Clay) (09/02/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Training is fun, training changes your relationship with your dog and training changes your dog.&amp;nbsp; But is training enough?&amp;nbsp; Do you have behavioral concerns beyond the scope of obedience exercises?&amp;nbsp; Come to this informative clinic, offered once a session to discuss relevant treatment plans to help shape your canine's behavior.&amp;nbsp; Housetraining, Stealing Objects, Counter-Cruising, Excessive Barking, Door Greetings, Jumping up, Toys and Inappropriate Chewing, are just a few of the subjects on the table.&amp;nbsp; This Clinic is purely a Q&amp;amp;A.&amp;nbsp; Your questions will be answered by our Certified Master Trainer and animal behavior expert. Attendees are not required to stay for the entire clinic once their concern has been addressed.&amp;nbsp; Come and go as you please.&amp;nbsp; This Workshop is for humans only, but dogs may attend if they remain manageable during discussions.&amp;nbsp; While we may discuss Reactivity, Human-directed Aggression and Dog-to-Dog Aggression, we regret that these dogs cannot attend the discussion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This unique play opportunity will teach you how to "ground" your tiny dog during play and to create trust in the working partnership of you and your dog. Littles who are well grounded and have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Wallflowers class! We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. This class will not have moderated entrances and exits, instead the owner will be on the floor with their dog. If you cannot sit on the floor, this class will not benefit your dog. Event Rules are available on-site. Come join this unique play experience!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;The CGC Program is a two-part program that is designed to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Teach responsible dog ownership to owners&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Certify dogs that have the training and behaviors needed to be reliable, well-behaved members of their families and communities&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dogs who pass the CGC test have demonstrated they are under good control and are safe around people and other dogs. The purpose of the CGC Program is to ensure that our favorite companion, the dog, can be a respected member of the community because it has been trained to be well behaved in the home, in public places, and in the presence of other dogs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CGC, CGCA, TKN, and TKI testing are typically scheduled together in a single session. If the test you are interested in is full please continue to register for that test and join the waitlist. Capacities between the tests in a single session may be adjusted to accommodate the specific tests people have registered for.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testing begins at&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong data-start="267" data-end="278"&gt;4:00 PM&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and will continue until all participants present have completed testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Participants should plan to be checked in and ready to test at the 4:00 PM start time&lt;/strong&gt;. Because the total testing time depends on attendance and test types, arrivals after 4:00 PM may limit testing availability.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;AKC Trick Dog is one of AKC’s most popular training programs because trick training is fun for both dogs and their trainers.&lt;/p&gt;

AKC Trick Dog ranges from very simple novice tricks such as teaching your dog to get in a box on cue, to complex tricks that are several behaviors chained together in one exciting sequence. The Novice Trick Dog test confirms demonstration of at least 10 novice skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

That’s what our Placement Test is for! Our evaluator will walk you and your dog through a few simple exercises to gauge their current training level, focus, and confidence, and help determine which OCC class is the best fit.

&lt;p data-start="485" data-end="515"&gt;Why take a Placement Test?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-start="516" data-end="704"&gt;
  &lt;li data-start="516" data-end="584"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="518" data-end="584"&gt;Ensures your dog is in the &lt;span data-start="545" data-end="582"&gt;right class for their skill level&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="585" data-end="629"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="587" data-end="629"&gt;Sets you both up for &lt;span data-start="608" data-end="627"&gt;success and fun&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li data-start="630" data-end="704"&gt;
    &lt;p data-start="632" data-end="704"&gt;Saves time and frustration (no jumping ahead or getting stuck behind!)&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;It’s not about passing or failing—it’s about finding the perfect spot so you and your furry friend can make the most of your training journey.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start="706" data-end="855"&gt;Contact the Training Director at training@occdogtraining.org for registration.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Shy dogs unite! Come play with other shy dogs! Wallflowers who have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Adult Play class! Hopefully our Wallflowers will graduate from “Shy Play” and move up into the Adult Play Class. This class may also be appropriate for some of our smaller or younger dogs. We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. Entrances and Exits are moderated. Event Rules are available on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;**To assure valid vaccinations and to regulate the classes, all participants must be registered in order to play.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>ENS133 Behavior Clinic (Demaree Clay) (11/18/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Training is fun, training changes your relationship with your dog and training changes your dog.&amp;nbsp; But is training enough?&amp;nbsp; Do you have behavioral concerns beyond the scope of obedience exercises?&amp;nbsp; Come to this informative clinic, offered once a session to discuss relevant treatment plans to help shape your canine's behavior.&amp;nbsp; Housetraining, Stealing Objects, Counter-Cruising, Excessive Barking, Door Greetings, Jumping up, Toys and Inappropriate Chewing, are just a few of the subjects on the table.&amp;nbsp; This Clinic is purely a Q&amp;amp;A.&amp;nbsp; Your questions will be answered by our Certified Master Trainer and animal behavior expert. Attendees are not required to stay for the entire clinic once their concern has been addressed.&amp;nbsp; Come and go as you please.&amp;nbsp; This Workshop is for humans only, but dogs may attend if they remain manageable during discussions.&amp;nbsp; While we may discuss Reactivity, Human-directed Aggression and Dog-to-Dog Aggression, we regret that these dogs cannot attend the discussion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Shy dogs unite! Come play with other shy dogs! Wallflowers who have shown bravery may be asked if they would like to stay over into the Adult Play class! Hopefully our Wallflowers will graduate from “Shy Play” and move up into the Adult Play Class. This class may also be appropriate for some of our smaller or younger dogs. We will actively discuss body language as it occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No females in heat, no dogs with known reactivity issues, no dogs with a history of a bite. Additionally, play time may be restricted for intact males.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring your own crates if you need one. Entrances and Exits are moderated. Event Rules are available on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your dog has NEVER played in a moderated group before, you are welcome to sign-up for pre-play testing to see if your dog’s skills are appropriate for group play. This testing is available by appointment times that are not necessarily on Fair Play Fridays. Contact the Instructor for testing. If your dog needs One-on-One Therapeutic play, this service is available by appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;**To assure valid vaccinations and to regulate the classes, all participants must be registered in order to play.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
