Therapy Dog Prep Class

The Therapy dog Prep class is an excellent opportunity to familiarize yourself with all the testing aspects or see what your weak spots are and where you can improve before taking a Therapy Dog International test. Classes will be taught by Alex de Foucault or Gretchen Buckles, both are certified TDI evaluators. 

We encourage all parties interested in testing to check out and take the prep class. However, it is not mandatory and you can certainly test without taking the prep class beforehand. 

Prep classes are generally held the week prior to a therapy dog test. 
We are also happy to help you work on preparing for the test in private lessons. Please visit our Private lesson page for more information.
