AKC Trick Dog Classes
Elite Pet University is proud to offer fun AKC Trick Dog classes! We have AKC-approved trick dog evaluators so that you and your dog can earn fun AKC Trick Dog titles ranging from Novice to Elite Performer. Tricks are a fun way for you and your dog to build your bond, become better trainers, and earn some titles at the same time! The tricks we teach in each class are tricks that will be fun and help you and your dog work towards the goal of earning AKC titles. At the end of each class, if you feel ready to test out to earn a title, let the evaluator know and you can earn your title that day!
​
Each trick dog class is divided up by the title level and we will work on tricks that are corresponding to that level. Each night will be different than the last, so you can attend as many trick classes as you need to feel ready for the AKC Trick Dog test.

Trick dog classes are fun for everyone from someone new to training to someone who is advanced and has lots of titles on their dogs already. Like our other group classes, dogs must be friendly and comfortable in an environment with other dogs and people. Dogs must be healthy and current on vaccinations for rabies, distemper/parvo, canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines (bordetella must have been given within the last 6 months).
