Group Classes That Strengthen Bonds and Build Skills

If you're looking for top-notch dog training in Virginia Beach, our group classes offer the perfect blend of structure, fun, and socialization—all set against the beautiful coastal backdrop of this vibrant community. Whether you're welcoming a new puppy, tackling behavioral challenges, or simply wanting a better-behaved companion, we’ve got a class designed with you in mind.

Why Choose Group Dog Training at Ki's K-9?

Training your dog is about more than just commands—it’s about building trust, improving communication, and strengthening your bond. In our group classes, you'll be surrounded by fellow dog lovers on similar journeys, offering support, shared learning, and a sense of community. The group dynamic adds real-life distractions that help your dog learn how to stay focused and well-mannered even when the world around them is buzzing with activity.

Our classes take place in convenient locations throughout Virginia Beach, making them easily accessible for those who live in or near the area. If you're able to travel to our training facility, you'll find a welcoming environment designed for both safety and success. What to Expect in Every Class

Each group class is led by an experienced, certified trainer who uses positive reinforcement techniques backed by canine behavioral science. From your very first session, you’ll receive step-by-step guidance on how to work with your dog effectively—whether you're navigating sit-and-stay or more advanced leash manners.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

• Small group sizes to ensure individual attention and feedback
• Fun, engaging activities that challenge and stimulate your dog
• Age- and skill-appropriate instruction tailored to your goals
• Real-life practice scenarios for better behavior at home and in public
• Homework assignments and trainer tips for continued progress

Types of Group Classes We Offer

We provide a progression of class options so that you and your dog can continue learning and growing together:

• Puppy Fundamentals: Socialization, potty training, and basic obedience
• Manners & Obedience 1: Core skills like sit, stay, recall, and loose-leash walking
• Obedience 2 & Beyond: Advanced commands, distraction proofing, and real-world applications
• Focus & Impulse Control: For dogs who struggle with reactivity or self-control
• Specialty Workshops: Leash walking, polite greetings, and more

If your dog isn’t quite ready for a group setting—perhaps due to reactivity or social discomfort—we’re happy to recommend private training to build confidence and foundational skills before joining a class.

Is Group Training Right for You?

Our group classes are open to dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, provided they are up to date on vaccinations and can safely interact with others. We pride ourselves on creating an inclusive, supportive space where every owner feels empowered and every dog feels safe.

For residents or visitors able to travel to Virginia Beach, these classes offer a fantastic way to integrate your dog into a community-focused training experience. Whether you're walking down the boardwalk or enjoying a local dog-friendly café, the skills you and your pup develop here will make your life together more joyful and manageable.
