Most of you probably know that after 8+ years we will no longer be teaching dog training classes with the Castro Valley Adult School. They replaced the floor in their multi-purpose room and when they did they informed us that they no longer wanted to have dogs in the building and that they were moving forward with more fitness classes. That's okay for Braveheart as we still offer our classes at our own San Leandro location and at Dodger's Paws in Pleasanton.
In addition to this change, we have also made some other changes to the direction of the business. At this time, we will no longer be offering private behavior consultations. Our only private lessons will be for conformation/show dog training and bird consultations. We will continue to offer our usual wide variety of dog and puppy training classes and have added a Monday night conformation class to the schedule which is taught by Yvonne Chohan. Vicki will also continue to offer a very limited number of board and train dogs (small dogs and puppies) for conformation training as her schedule allows. Day training may be available for some of our clients as well.
Thank you all for your understanding and ongoing support.
