We train our dogs on Sunday's at 10:00 AM at the German American Social Club (behind the building), 2101 SW Pine Island Road (SR 78), Cape Coral, FL 33991. When attending for the first time, please call (239) 634-0708 or (239) 368-2301 to make sure that there is no change in the time or place of training. And please bring a copy of your dog's rabies certificate.

We start our training with Obedience and end each session with Protection. On request, we will also do Tracking, which starts one hour before Obedience. All breeds are welcome!

As a guest, we would like you to come to at least 4 training sessions in a row so that our trainer can see a development pattern in training. The guest's training fee is $15.00 for one dog and $5.00 for each additional dog each time you attend. After 4 sessions, you may be eligible for club membership with the trainer’s recommendation. Or you can just keep coming whenever you like and continue paying the guest's training fee each time you attend.
