Training Class Participation Agreement

Class participants certify that their dog is in good health and has not been ill with any communicable condition in the last 30 days. You further certify that your dog(s) have not harmed or shown aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or dog. You have read and understand the following:

  1. The Training With Grace staff and volunteers always work to ensure the safest environment possible for people and dogs in a training setting. However, I understand that dog training is physical in nature for both human and canine participants, and can result in injury to humans and/or dogs on occasion. While all precautions will be taken against such incidents, I agree that Training With Grace, its staff and volunteers, cannot be held liable for such issues.
  2. I understand and agree that I am solely responsible for my dog at all times during training. I understand and agree that Training With Grace, its staff and volunteers, will not be held liable for any problems that develop, and I hereby release them from any liability of any kind whatsoever arising from my dog(s) attendance and participation during training.
  3. I understand and agree that in admitting my dog(s) to training classes, Training With Grace, its staff and volunteers, have relied on my representation that my dog(s) is (are) in good health and have not harmed or shown aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or dog. Participation of my dog in training is at the discretion of the Training With Grace staff and volunteers, who reserve the right to expel dogs from training as they deem necessary to ensure the safety of all participants.
  4. I understand and agree that any and all video and photos taken during this and any Training With Grace event can be used for teaching, marketing and any other purpose Training With Grace sees fit.
  5. I understand and agree that all classes must be paid for in advance. If Training With Grace does not receive payment in advance, my spot in the class(es) cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, if I pay for the class and do not show up, I understand that I forfeit the complete class fee. If the reason is due to an emergency situation, refund ability will be determined at the discretion of Training With Grace.
  6. I understand that if I am allowed to break the package up into payments and I decide to drop out, I am still responsible for the remaining balance. And if I have paid in full and I decide to re-home the dog or give up the dog, I understand that my money is not refundable.
  7. I understand that if I sign up for a package I must use those sessions within a given amount of time. I will have a maximum of 6 months to complete a 6 or 8 session package or I will have maximum of 9 months to complete a 12 session package.  
  8. I understand that payment is due in full when Training With Grace is not notified of a missed appointment or cancellation at least 24 hours in advance. In some circumstances, make-ups may be available if Training With Grace is given at least 1 week notice.

Parent(s) or Guardian(s) must sign for any participating minor (those under 18 years of age) and agree that they are subject to all terms of this Document, as set forth above.

Class fees must be paid in full prior to start date in order to secure a spot. Please make checks payable to Training With Grace. For all classes, mail payment to:
