Our training school requires you to have at least 1 dog to attend class. These dogs will be your demo dogs when you graduate and begin work as a trainer. If you need dogs or think your dog would not be a good fit, you will need to find one for the program. We have rescues and shelters that we recommend. The APC provides all dogs needed to go through the grooming and veterinary school, but some students may choose to bring their own to practice specific modules.
