Group Class Information

WE DO GROUP CLASSES DIFFERENTLY.

For a long time, group training classes were something that we had no interest in doing. Because over and over again… we saw them fail for dog owners. As dog training professionals, we need to do better. Group classes were too cookie cutter, too much like a classroom and not enough like the real world (where good behavior matters most)! So when we finally decided to create a group class training option for dog owners just like you, we wanted to accomplish 3 things:

  • To create an environment that replicates REAL WORLD behavior challenges.

  • To have flexible curriculums, instead of a cookie-cutter course.

  • To bring your dog well beyond the “basics” and provide great training results that last.

See what’s included:

  • A safe indoor space with classes supervised by a qualified dog training professional.

  • Access to bonus classes, outings, and “real world” training opportunities.

  • A format that is designed to bring you results.

  • Class options to fit your needs. 

Class Information

  • Group Classes are held at our Training Facility at 20900 Frontage Rd Mezz B Belgrade MT 59714

  • All vaccinations records and waivers need to be signed and uploaded prior to the first day of class.

  • Please wear appropriate clothes with closed toed shoes.

  • Payment for a Group Class is non-refundable after the class start date. Exceptions may be made at the discretion of Gallatin K9 for emergencies or other unforeseen circumstances. If you or your dog is unable to attend a class date because of illness or injury and you notified Gallatin K9 prior to the class date, we will do our best to accommodate you in a future class of the same topic at no additional cost. However, if you do not attend a class date and fail to provide appropriate notice no accommodations will be made.
