Obedience Training

Dog obedience training is an important part of having a happy and successful relationship with your canine companion. It helps your pet understand and obey commands, which helps keep them safe and well-behaved.

Competition Obedience

Competition obedience is an exciting and rewarding sport for dogs and their owners alike. It requires dedication, commitment, and hard work to teach dogs the necessary skills to succeed in the ring.

Agility Training

Dog Agility Training is a great way to give your dog a fun and stimulating activity! This type of training combines fun and challenging obstacle courses with commands to help your dog learn new skills, stay active, and build a deeper bond with you.

Canine Good Citizen

Canine Good Citizen is a fantastic program that helps to ensure that our furry best friends are well-mannered and well-behaved companions. It provides valuable training and socialization opportunities, helping dogs learn the skills they need to become a model citizen.

Puppy Kindergarten

Going to puppy kindergarten is a great way to help your pup learn basic obedience and socialization skills. It is so important to set your pup up for success early on. Not only will your pup learn important skills, but they will also make new friends and have lots of fun!

Rally Obedience

Rally-O is similar to traditional obedience training, but emphasizes a more relaxed and interactive connection between you and your dog. You and your dog will work together to complete a course of numbered exercises comprised of fun heeling patterns, sits, downs, fronts and finishes. Rally-O is a fun and interactive way to strengthen your bond with your dog while having a blast!

K9 Nose Work

K9 nose work involves teaching dogs a variety of skills, such as tracking, locating scents, and searching for hidden objects. This activity can be done inside or outside and can be a great way to bond with your pup while also providing them with mental stimulation.

Testimonials


Agility classes with Lori Nieves are the absolute best! She is a fantastic trainer who elevates our game. Classes are limited, so you get plenty of time to practice on the course. She really cares about her students and we love coming to work with her.

Joseph’s is one of the top training facilities on Cape Cod. I have done obedient training, agility training, show training, and very pleased every single time. I’m a breeder and anytime I sell one of my V’s on cape I always suggest Joseph’s obedience.

Peter S.

Jumpy just finished level one obedience – and she can’t wait to start level two next month, accompanied by her aunt Betty. This is our second generation of labs trained at Joseph’s and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Absolutely the best!
