Learn how to use pathwork skills to easily guide your dog through a course comprised of hoops and marks.

​Combine the dexterity and agileness of your dog on obstacles with obedience skills that highlight distance and directional control of your dog in the Obstacle/Obedience class!

A new obedience format that shows the handlers ability to send their dogs to marks at a distance and change directions when cued by the handler.
​
Obedience tests and balance tests challenge the dogs as they progress through the levels.  Handlers will exhibit their dog's ability to change positions when cued. 

At the higher levels the dogs will show their ability to perform scentwork and retrieving tests.

Join us with your dogs for the upcoming Canine Training Challenge competitions!  Get together with friends and create a three dog team or compete individually also!   Explore the fun and innovative courses within the classes offered within the Canine Training Challenge venue.

​Do you have a rescue dog?  Are you a rescue group or shelter?  Be sure to check out the rescue dog Team division of the Canine Training Challenge!

We want to promote the training of all dogs that have been rescued and to encourage shelters and rescue groups to train for the Canine Training Challenge to help them become more adoptable and find their furever homes.

Form a team to promote your shelter or rescue group or compete as an individual.  A team is comprised of three dogs, one of which must be a dog adopted from a shelter/humane society/rescue group.

A trained dog is a happy dog!
