OFF-LEASH PLAY SESSIONS
The importance of proper socialization is not limited to the puppy stage. These sessions provide a safe environment for continuing exposure to other dogs, people and situations under the supervision of one of our trainers. Dogs must be friendly with other dogs and people, completed a class at Sunrise and be evaluated by a trainer before participating to ensure the safety of all.

CONFORMATION CLASSES
6 months of age and older. These classes provide advice and practice to make your dog shine in the show ring. Skills include gaiting, stacking, free-baiting, movement formations and, most importantly, how to cover your dog’s faults. These enjoyable classes are open to anyone, whether you are a newcomer to conformation or an experienced show handler in need of practice.

OBEDIENCE REFRESHERS
Obedience Refresher sessions are a wonderful way to maintain reliability by providing an opportunity for you and your dog to practice existing behaviors in different environments with other dogs. Exercises, designed and lead by one of the trainers, are intended to reinforce established skills in a challenging and enjoyable setting.

CGC CERTIFICATION PREP
Regular practice of the ten required behaviors for the CGC Test is essential in order to ensure success in the formal test. These sessions offer the opportunity for structured practice of the individual skills in addition to mock tests.

AGILITY PRACTICE & RUN-THROUGH SESSIONS
Open to handlers and dogs that have previously completed at least two agility classes. Obstacles will be arranged in a different sequence at each of these sessions to form a comprehensive agility course. Handlers and dogs may take turns running the course and the supervising trainer can offer suggestions on improving performance.
