In previous years, this course received CEU credits from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT), the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), and Karen Pryor Academy (KPA).

We strongly recommend that you do not bring your dog (with the exception of a personal service dog). You will not have much free time to tend to your dog, and there is no course time dedicated to training your dog.

If you must bring your dog, your dog must be well-socialized and comfortable around people and other dogs. You must bring a kennel to house your dog while in class. Your dog will not be in the classroom with you; the kennel will not fit in the classroom. You will have to find the time to tend to your dog during the brief breaks in class. Classroom and training sessions will start promptly and we will not be able to wait for those who need to tend to their dogs.

That’s right—we now have a selection of Ranch t-shirts available for preorder ahead of your event! Choose from four different designs, each available in a variety of colors so you can find the one that suits you best.

T-shirts are just $27.95, and we’ll cover the cost of your pre-order shipping. Your shirt will be ready for pickup when you arrive at The Ranch.

Please note: The deadline to order is Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 11:59 PM EST.

Full refunds are available up until the order deadline (Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 11:59 PM EST).
No refunds after the order deadline. In this case, you can choose one of two options:
- Forfeit the shirt (it goes into The Ranch’s inventory), or
- Request a one-time discount code to reorder the shirt and pay just the shipping fee (not the shirt cost, which was already paid). Please send an email to events@clickertraining.com in this case.

Refunds/Cancellation Policy

If you book a spot, please make every effort to attend. If you do need to cancel, the following is our cancellation policy:

Cancel more than 60 days before the course start date for a 90% refund of your registration fee.
Cancel between 60 days and 30 days from the course start date for a 50% refund of your registration fee.

An attendee must request any refunds through their personal registration page. Please use the information in your confirmation email to log into your personal registration page. No refunds will be issued other than those listed in accordance with the policy above.

We strongly recommend travel insurance, especially for overseas trips. Insurance protects your overall investment if you are forced to cancel your registration. It protects you in many situations, including lost luggage or illness. Many independent agencies offer travel insurance, as do travel providers.
