Group Training Classes, Private Lessons, Service Dog Training, and Board & Trains

Bringing a new puppy home or a rescue is such an amazing experience. It can also be one of the most tiring times. Board and Trains can help take some of the stress out of puppy parenthood. Board and Trains allow your pup to learn various skills such as basic obedience commands, leash skills, socialization, handling, and many other day-to-day experiences.

Board and Trains are extended to puppies and adult dogs over the age of 12 weeks. Board and Trains are offered in several different time increments: four, five, and six weeks; however, most puppies fall into the four to five-week category. Three-week board and trains are only offered when extensive training is already in place and the training goals are limited. 

Updates are provided through our Time to Pet App and a weekly call is scheduled for an update on progress. 

  • Board & Train Consultation: $30
  • Board & Train - Daily Rate: $160


Group Training Classes are offered for puppies and adult dogs. We have a variety of classes geared towards basic obedience and building upon skills learned in classes. We provide positive reinforcement training (no pinches, prongs, or shock collars). Classes are offered on Sundays (excluding all major holidays) at Pet Food Express located in El Dorado Hills Towncenter (4520 Post Street, EDH). Please contact us for additional class information. Please note leash reactivity is not something that can be addressed during group classes and is best trained during private one-on-one lessons. If your dog demonstrates leash reactivity during class, you may be asked to leave.

  • Puppy Manners (puppies under 6 months of age): Sundays, 11a to 12p
  • CGC, UCGC, ACGC Group Class: Sundays, 12p to 1p
  • Basic Manners (puppies and adult pups over 7 months of age): Sundays, 1p to 2p
  • Intermediate Manners (must have completed basic manners): Sundays, 2p to 3p

*Group classes are $30 per class.


Whilst we are happy to have all pups in group classes; a group setting is not for everyone. We offer private one-hour training sessions ($70). In private lessons, we can work on reactivity, in home manners, and some behavior modification. Please contact us for more information.


Happy Paws also provides service dog training; we are certified through Animal Behavioral College. Please contact us for information regarding our service dog training program.
