Field Trips

At KC Dawgz, we believe that dog obedience should be implemented in all environments and not limited to the home. Our dogs travel away from our dog training academy to train in both public and private training environments throughout Kansas City. Our doggie students learn how to behave properly in new environments, meet new people and other dogs in public settings, and learn how to behave in areas of high distraction. Distraction proofing and teaching a dog how to behave outside of its home environment is imperative for building the best relationship possible between you and your dog.
