Class Requirements for Tracking Class

These are rules & regulations for anyone who wants to join this class. Please read through these carefully.


1) Dogs joining this class may be at any level of obedience, no prior training is required to join. All breeds are encouraged to join! 

2) Puppies must be at least 16 weeks of age (4 months) before joining class & proof should be shown to the instructor(s) at the first class.  Your puppy should have all the vaccinations required by your veterinarian at this age. (This usually consists of at least two sets of vaccinations, sometimes three. Puppies normally receive four sets of vaccinations by the time they are 20 weeks, i.e., 5 months of age.)

3) All dogs over 20 weeks of age (5 months) must be fully vaccinated & proof should be shown to the instructor(s) at the first class. This includes the following vaccinations: Distemper, Parvovirus & Rabies. (It is not mandatory but it is highly recommended that your dog is treated every 28-30 days with a flea & tick prevention such as Frontline or Advantage.)

4) All dogs must be on a 6 or 15-foot cotton-web lead (no Flexi® or retractable leashes are allowed) at all times during class unless your instructor tells you otherwise. The leash must be attached to a body harness that fits your dog appropriately.

5) You must bring an ample amount of poop-bags for any necessary clean-up & you must clean-up after your dogs when necessary & dispose of it properly.

6) You should bring water & a bowl for your dog to have a refreshment & thirst quencher.  You also will need extremely yummy treats & your dog's favorite toy (or toys).  We recommend Natural Balance Food Rolls as a treat. (Each class will have certain treat/reward requirements which will be sent to you prior to your class's start date.)
