Overview
Competition Obedience Classes with Kathy Lang are divided into two types of classes: Foundation Skills (FS) are classes in which new skills will be introduced. Proofing & Ring Prep (PRP) are classes for students whose dogs have learned the main components of the various exercises and are ready to put them together for ring readiness and trial preparation. Not every class is offered every session. See class descriptions for more information. If you don’t see what you are looking for, email Kathy with your specific needs.
