Adventure Ready Classes

Not your Average Manners classes

Adventure Ready

Here at Fitnacity, it is our goal to improve the lives of dogs by building a positive relationship through training.


We aim to help dogs live more enriched lives and have some fun along the way! For you, this could mean a well-mannered companion who can join the family at the kid’s baseball practice, on a hike or hang out at a brewery. It could mean harnessing your dog’s natural abilities to sniff in nosework, use their brain in rally and tricks or build strength in fitness.


The Adventure Ready Series was designed with these goals in mind. They go beyond your basic manners class and teach you and your dog skills that build confidence, attention and set you up for a lifetime of adventures together.
