"The Canine Center offers services from Doggie Day
Care to herding classes and CGC. The trainers are
very patient and work with the positive rewards
method, for both the dog and the handler (:>). Dixie
and I especially enjoy the Agility Classes."

"Great trainer, wonderful atmosphere, super place to
learn dog agility. It's a great feeling when I go away
and know I don't have to worry about Murphy. He gets
plenty of attention, loads of room to play, and lots of
care by people who have a tremendous love for
animals. I feel very fortunate to have found the
Canine Center. If you mention the words "farm" or
"Norma" to Murphy, he will follow me around at my
heels until we leave to go. He knows this means fun
time and loves being there."

"I adopted Maize from Norma and Katie. Maize is a
problem child. And after training the initial training at
The Canine Center, Maize is a model citizen. I still train
out there on a weekly basis. Excellent agility training!!!
There are excellent puppy yards for the dogs to play
in. From wild child to good girl, Norma can help you
train your dog to pass the Canine Good Citizen
program/test. The Canine Center is also an excellent
place to have your dog stay instead of a kennel for any
length of time!!! Plenty of workers to play with your
dog and care for your dog!!!"

"The Canine Center is a great place to learn
more about your four legged family member's
full potential. It's a fun place to come for
lessons in behavior and various dog sports.
Also The Canine Center is a place your dog
will know and love which makes them at ease
when boarded."

The bassett hound, collie, and
huskie are all Level 1 attendees.
In these photos they are learning
to focus on their handler and they
are getting accustomed to being
handled and groomed.
"Fynn and Ash love to come to The Canine Center. We
found Norma after we had already completed beginning
and novice level obedience at another facility. We
started at Level 1 and finally found home. The other
training centers never knew how to handle their breed
and personalities. I learned the meaning behind
techniques here that had never been explained before
and learned many valuable techniques for focus
exercises and behavior modifications. I am always
amazed how Norma can keep a large class busy while
making sure that each breed type, personality type,
and training level is being maintained for each dog
and handler. "
