Neither is the absence of any organization intended to reflect negatively on them. At 6826 Distribution Drive, Beltsville, MD, there are classes at all levels from Puppy and Basic through Utility. About every 5 weeks new Basic and Puppy classes are started. At the Davidsonville Family Recreation Center on Queen Anne Bridge Road, Davidsonville, MD, evening Basic classes are started every 10 weeks, and there are Intermediate, Novice, and Open classes there. The fee charged for classes is used to cover rental costs for building space.
Instructors are volunteers, some of whom are obedience judges.
