Got a pup and a travel itch? Look no further! If you're keen on bringing your furry friend along on all your adventures, then our Have Pup, Will Travel Intermediate 1 class is tailor-made for you. Designed as the next step in obedience training, our Intermediate Obedience class is all about getting your pup ready to handle bustling and distracting environments with ease.

In this class, we take things up a notch. We'll fine-tune skills like advanced focus, maintaining a steady stay, reliable recall (even in the midst of excitement), and the essential "leave it" command. But that's not all – we're introducing a range of exciting new skills, as well as some fun tricks that'll surely impress.

What sets this class apart is our practical approach. We venture out into real-world settings, exposing your pup to various public scenarios. This not only helps them learn to behave but also paves the way for them to become an AKC Canine Good Citizen. It's an excellent opportunity for pups of all ages who have already mastered the basics like sit, down, stay, and proper leash manners in public.

At 2SpeakDog, we're all about inclusion. We encourage the whole family to join in, and especially if you have young children, we recommend having two adults attend the class whenever possible. Because training is a team effort!

To enroll in this class, you've got a couple of pathways. If your pup has completed our Basic Level II, they're good to go. Alternatively, if your pup has graduated from Walking Workshop Levels I and II, along with a 45-minute private evaluation and training session (just get in touch with us to schedule), they're more than welcome to join the class.

So, if you're up for turning your pup into a well-mannered travel companion, join us for the Have Pup, Will Travel class – where obedience meets adventure

Qualifications: Completion of Basic Level II OR Pup completes Walking Workshop Levels I and II plus a 45-minute private evaluation/training session (contact 2SD to schedule).

NOTE: To participate in any class, 2SD requires proof of at least two rounds of the following vaccinations: distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, and parainfluenza (typically reflected in records as 'DHPP'), as well as bordetella. Proof of rabies vaccination is required for puppies 16 weeks and older. We also HIGHLY recommend Caine Influenza (H3N8 & H3n2)

We are thrilled to announce our brand new Older Puppy Socialization Class!

Do you have a lively, fuzzy puppy aged 5-12 months? If so, our Older Puppy Socialization Class is perfect for you! This 4-week course is tailored specifically for older puppies ready to begin obedience training while still needing off-leash socialization. The class covers basic obedience, loose leash walking, understanding puppy body language, safe socialization practices, managing common behaviors, calming and focus techniques, and a few essential obedience skills.

Designed to accommodate the short attention spans of both puppies and their humans, each hour-long session includes play breaks and downtime. We’ll also discuss important topics like nipping/biting, potty training, crate training, controlled play, and more.

This class is ideal for first-time puppy owners, those continuing from our New Puppy Socialization class, or experienced owners looking for a refresher.

If you are interested in training two or more dogs, whether they are litter mates or just house mates, please sign them up individually. We recommend attending individually rather than in the same class to build confidence independently and to learn to rely on you instead of their pack mate/s.

PLEASE NOTE: PROOF OF THE FOLLOWING VACCINES MUST BE RECEIVED 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE START OF CLASS (Please have your vet's office email them to speak2us@2speakdog.com) :
RABIES (For pups 16+ weeks)
BORDETELLA (All ages)
2 ROUNDS OF DISTEMPER, HEPATITIS, PARVOVIRUS, PARAINFLUENZA (DHPP) (All ages)

Please continue socializing your puppy by signing up for our puppy playgroups! Check for upcoming playgroups under the Workshops tab in your MindBody account.

Have a fuzzy bundle of fur and energy on your hands? If so, our New Puppy Socialization Class is for you! This 4-week class caters specifically to pups 10 weeks through 5 months of age. It focuses on puppy play (socialization) time, proper puppy body language, learning how to safely socialize your pup, managing common puppy behaviors, calming and focus techniques, and a few basic obedience skills.

This class is designed to work with puppies' short attention spans and allows for play breaks and down time. Each hour-long class includes a discussion on topics such as nipping/biting, potty training, crate training, controlled play, and more.

This is a great class for first-time puppy owners and as a refresher for experienced owners.

PLEASE NOTE: PROOF OF THE FOLLOWING VACCINES MUST BE RECEIVED 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE START OF CLASS (Please have your vet's office email them to speak2us@2speakdog.com) :
RABIES (For pups 16+ weeks)

If you are interested in training two or more dogs, whether they are litter mates or just house mates, please sign them up individually. We recommend attending individually rather than in the same class to build confidence independently and to learn to rely on you instead of their pack mate/s.

Please continue socializing your puppy by signing up for our puppy playgroups! Check for upcoming playgroups under the Workshops tab in your MindBody account.

Got a pup and a travel itch? Look no further! If you're keen on bringing your furry friend along on all your adventures, then our Have Pup, Will Travel Intermediate 1 class is tailor-made for you. Designed as the next step in obedience training, our Intermediate Obedience class is all about getting your pup ready to handle bustling and distracting environments with ease.

In this class, we take things up a notch. We'll fine-tune skills like advanced focus, maintaining a steady stay, reliable recall (even in the midst of excitement), and the essential "leave it" command. But that's not all – we're introducing a range of exciting new skills, as well as some fun tricks that'll surely impress.

What sets this class apart is our practical approach. We venture out into real-world settings, exposing your pup to various public scenarios. This not only helps them learn to behave but also paves the way for them to become an AKC Canine Good Citizen. It's an excellent opportunity for pups of all ages who have already mastered the basics like sit, down, stay, and proper leash manners in public.

At 2SpeakDog, we're all about inclusion. We encourage the whole family to join in, and especially if you have young children, we recommend having two adults attend the class whenever possible. Because training is a team effort!

To enroll in this class, you've got a couple of pathways. If your pup has completed our Basic Level II, they're good to go. Alternatively, if your pup has graduated from Walking Workshop Levels I and II, along with a 45-minute private evaluation and training session (just get in touch with us to schedule), they're more than welcome to join the class.

So, if you're up for turning your pup into a well-mannered travel companion, join us for the Have Pup, Will Travel class – where obedience meets adventure

Qualifications: Completion of Basic Level II OR Pup completes Walking Workshop Levels I and II plus a 45-minute private evaluation/training session (contact 2SD to schedule).

NOTE: To participate in any class, 2SD requires proof of at least two rounds of the following vaccinations: distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, and parainfluenza (typically reflected in records as 'DHPP'), as well as bordetella. Proof of rabies vaccination is required for puppies 16 weeks and older. We also HIGHLY recommend Caine Influenza (H3N8 & H3n2)

We are so excited to announce our brand NEW OLDER Puppy Socialization Class!

Have a fuzzy bundle of fur and energy on your hands, aged 5-12 months? If so, our Older Puppy Socialization Class is for you! This 4-week class caters specifically to older puppies who are ready to begin some real obedience training, but still need off-leash socialization opportunities! It focuses on beginning obedience, beginning loose leash walking, proper puppy body language, learning how to safely socialize your pup, managing common puppy behaviors, calming and focus techniques, and a few basic obedience skills.

This class is designed to work with puppies' (and humans) short attention spans and allows for play breaks and down time. Each hour-long class includes a discussion on topics such as nipping/biting, potty training, crate training, controlled play, and more.

This is a great class for first-time puppy owners or for continuation from our first New Puppy Socialization class. It is also a great refresher for experienced owners.

If you are interested in training two or more dogs, whether they are litter mates or just house mates, please sign them up individually. We recommend attending individually rather than in the same class to build confidence independently and to learn to rely on you instead of their pack mate/s.

This class will be held at our new facility in Stony Point Fashion Park.

PLEASE NOTE: PROOF OF THE FOLLOWING VACCINES MUST BE RECEIVED 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE START OF CLASS (Please have your vet's office email them to speak2us@2speakdog.com) :
RABIES (For pups 16+ weeks)
BORDETELLA (All ages)
2 ROUNDS OF DISTEMPER, HEPATITIS, PARVOVIRUS, PARAINFLUENZA (DHPP) (All ages)

Basic Obedience Level II has a well-rounded curriculum designed to continue you and your dog's training education. We will continue to build on the commands in Level I by "proofing" them for use in public situations, add new and more advanced obedience commands, and introduce real life rewards to wean off of treats. We cover sit, down, stay at levels beyond introduction, mental games and tricks, as well as stand and wait commands. Two class sessions will meet in public locations so as to introduce the pups to training with real life distractions.


2SpeakDog encourages attendance by the whole family. If you have young children, we ask that two adults attend class when possible.

Please Note: If you are interested in Basic II but you have not completed 2SD’s Basic I, please contact us. speak2us@2speakdog.com.
