NOTE: By enrolling you are holding a space in one of our courses. However, your class spot is not secured until payment is received. Our class sizes are limited to ensure quality.
REFUND POLICY: If you or your dog are unable to attend due to an injury or illness causing you to be unable to finish the set of classes, you will receive a refund for missed classes. You will be required to supply a note from a doctor or veterinarian. If 5 Star cancels a class, you will receive a full refund or credit for a future class. Please carefully consider your schedule, commitment to training, and your dog before registering for class.
REACTIVE OR FEARFUL DOGS: If you have a reactive, fearful or aggressive dog, ask about the suitability of group classes for your dog before registering for a class. Group classes can be counterproductive for some dogs with fear issues, and if we feel private training would be more beneficial for your dog, we will refer to a trainer who will provide that service.
