Our Training and Enrichment Program focuses on classes intended to foster a healthy, positive, human-animal bond, promoting humane animal treatment, responsible pet care, and positive reinforcement tactics for addressing behavioral issues. All classes take place at our facility located at 21 Salt Creek Lane, Hinsdale.
