What vaccinations are required for group classes?

Most Encinitas group classes require DHPP (or equivalent) and rabies appropriate to age, and many also ask for Bordetella. Puppy classes may accept a current vaccine schedule rather than a full adult set — confirm with the provider before the first meeting.

Are group classes right for a reactive dog?

Usually no. If your dog lunges, barks, or shuts down around other dogs, a busy classroom can rehearse the problem. Start with private or carefully managed parallel walks, then graduate to group work only when a trainer confirms your dog can learn near distractions.
