Our Group Evaluation Event offers a more accessible, lower-cost alternative to our standard private evaluation while still ensuring we can properly assess your dog for group training environments.
This evaluation is conducted in a small group setting, allowing us to observe your dog in a realistic environment with other dogs and handlers present. This gives us valuable insight into how your dog handles distractions, proximity, and shared space.
During the evaluation, we will be observing:
Engagement with handler in a group environment
Ability to remain under threshold around other dogs and people
Recovery from distractions
General public behavior and handling
Following the event, you will receive a detailed follow-up email outlining next steps. This may include:
Approval to join group outings and events
Any considerations or recommendations for participation
A recommendation to complete private lessons or continued training prior to joining group settings
This format allows us to maintain safety and quality standards while offering a more budget-friendly entry point into our group programs.
Please note that while this is a group format, each dog is still individually evaluated. Participation in this event does not guarantee approval for group outings.
Spots are limited to ensure a productive and well-managed environment for all teams.
Dogs must be worked on a harness, properly conditioned head-halter, flat collar, or fabric martingale. Dogs on e-collars or prongs will not be passed for group outings, and will need to redo their evaluation.
This evaluation is open to service dogs or service dogs in training only. This evaluation is not suitable for aggressive dogs.
