ARF Dog Training

Training may be the single most important activity you do to ensure a lifetime of happiness with your canine best friend.

While having fun you can

  • Teach your dog how to succeed in your family setting
  • Learn inter-species communication skills
  • Discover new fun things to do with your dog

ARF's training methods are simple. You will learn how to make the most out of your best friend's good behavior and how to redirect mischievous moments. You will learn how to use treats, praise and play to guarantee your dog's success.

ARF U offers classes for people and dogs, whether they're beginners or working at more advanced levels. All classes are held in the Dog Training Pavilion at ARF's shelter located at 2890 Mitchell Drive, Walnut Creek, California at the corner of Mitchell Drive and Oak Grove Road.
