The why behind Optimal Performance Canine

OBEDIENCE

At Optimal Performance Canine, we go beyond one-size-fits-all training by focusing on what dogs and their handlers truly need—personalized programs tailored to real-life environments. Drawing from extensive experience with hundreds of dog-handler teams, we recognized that success in a classroom doesn't always translate to everyday life. That’s why our training takes place in your home or real-world settings, addressing specific challenges and goals to build a strong, reliable bond. Our obedience programs provide a solid foundation, but every journey is customized to fit your dog and lifestyle—because training should adapt to you, not the other way around.

AGILITY

The agility side of Optimal Performance Canine began in a backyard with a small group of passionate handlers and has grown into a thriving community housed in a 120x60 indoor facility with top-tier equipment and safe, maintained footing. More than just a training space, it’s a place where dogs and handlers of all levels come to grow, have fun, and chase their goals—whether through weekly fun runs or competitive training. We prioritize safety, progress, and inclusion by continuously upgrading our facility and offering a wide range of classes, including options for reactive dogs. Every lesson is thoughtfully planned to meet the unique goals of each group, and above all, we keep agility fun, motivating, and focused on teamwork—because when training feels good, performance follows.
