Custom Group Class (4 Classes)
Would you like your own customized class to focus on topics you and your dog really need more work on, such as: Level-Two Obedience, Leash-Walking, Off-Leash Control, Tricks, or even Breed-Specific Obedience? We would be happy to lead you through a four-week program on any of these topics and more! A customized course is built around goals that you and your classmates set with the Trainer before the course begins. As always, it will be fun and effective. For example, in a Level-Two Obedience course, you can learn increased self-control and attention in the face of distractions, improved Leash Walking and Recalls, as well as new commands such as Go to Place, advanced Leave It, advanced Stay, Touch (Hand Targeting), and more. A minimum of three students is required for a custom group class. Give us a call to set one up for you and your doggy's friends, or to join a group of others with the same interests as you!

Testimonials
"The classes were GREAT!! Our trainer was the perfect teacher - nice, fun, professional, and genuine! The assistants were terrific as well. I really enjoyed everything about the classes!!"
- Dana P., Greenwich Village, NYC

"Exceptional! In just 3 sessions my dog and I were walking in rhythm together - no tugging, no pulling, no more defiance from a rather defiant bulldog. Those are things of the past. Now we cruise down the street thanks to your help. My favorite part is when my dog speeds up when I do, slows down when I do and coasts right by my side. Thanks!"
- Sarah R., East Village, NYC

"It was an amazing experience. I would recommend Biscuits & Bath Training to anyone."
- Mark M., Upper East Side, NYC

"Our teacher was an excellent dog trainer and we really enjoyed working with her. She had good energy and is obviously very skilled with animals."
- Franklin B., Upper West Side, NYC

"My husband and I couldn't be happier with our classes. Our dog picked up the commands so quickly, especially for only being a puppy. People on the street acknowledge the obedience she has. The training techniques were so easy for us to learn and compatible for every day living. Our dog Shandy will be well trained and loved thanks to the help and guidance! Thanks."
- Jodi C., Greenwich Village, NYC

"David demystified the whole process of training. His methods were so gentle that at first I couldn't believe they would work. Kaia is proof, though, that "gentle" backed with incredible knowledge works!"
- Barbara and Perry K., Murray Hill, NYC

"We really had a tremendous experience with the training sessions. We adopted a dog 3 weeks before classes started and she had received no training from her previous owners. Within days after our first class, she already learned to "sit," and hold the position with eye contact. We simply cannot believe the progress she made over the course of 6 weeks."
- Valerie, Upper East Side, NYC
