All About Dogs requests payment to be made upon registration for any class or special event. This is to ensure those registering are serious in their intent to participate. Our class size is small and commitment to the course is important to the success of your dog’s training program, as well as the other members of the class who also wish to train their dogs in a group class environment. If classes are missed there will be no refund given and no make-up classes provided.

Refund Information:

Requests for cancellations must be made in writing and approved. All cancellations will be subject to an admin fee of $50 which will be deducted from the refunded amount.
