Dog training club in St. Paul

Train together, every season

spdtc brings obedience, agility, and nose work together with club events, for handlers who want practical teamwork and focused dogs.

Three disciplines

Obedience, agility, and nose work

Each discipline builds different skills. Choose one to start, or train across all three as you and your dog settle in.

Obedience training

Build reliable recall, loose-leash walking, and calm focus around people and other dogs, one skill at a time.

Agility training

Move through jumps, tunnels, and weave poles with clear handling cues that keep you and your dog working as a team.

Nose work training

Practice scent search skills in structured settings, building confidence and patience for dogs of every age.

Our club

A club built on steady practice

spdtc has trained dogs and handlers in St. Paul since 1954. Our instructors focus on practical teamwork, clear communication, and steady progress rather than quick results.

Regular training sessions, trials, and matches bring members together through the seasons, whether you are just starting or already competing.
