Since we are a 21,000 sq. Ft facility we also offer classes in our fenced in play areas in the evenings that enables us to offer many classes as the same time and soon we will have our 35,000 sq. Ft. Outdoor expansion complete offering Tracking, Agility and Lure in addition to specialty classes such as our very own Soccer Class that is great for those herding breeds!.

In  our indoor facility you will enjoy class in our climate controlled environment without the worry of the heat, humidity, rain, mud or bugs! Never worry about getting rained out, or your dog getting dirty or muddy and say good bye to the mosquitos when the sun goes down because you will be inside away from all the discomforts a Florida evening.

Payment in full must be received to secure your position in the class. Most classes require a minimum of 5 people to start, if the class does not have its minimum requirement, it will be pushed back a week until the 5 person minimum is met.

Class fees are non-refundable unless a class did not start because of a reason associated with K9 Kampus or the Trainer. After the first day of class no refunds are given in full or part. Class payments cannot be transferred to another class once a class has started.
