West Los Angeles Obedience Training Club

Tricks Training

Dogs will work to learn at least 10 tricks from the AKC Novice Trick Dog list. Dogs who have their Canine Good Citizen (CGC) only need 5 tricks for the Novice title!

Every dog learns at their own pace. Your Dog is NOT guaranteed to earn the title, but will be given the opportunity to test for it during the last class of the session.

All classes are held at the Cheviot Hills Recreation Center, on Motor Ave near Pico Blvd, in West Los Angeles.

A current waiver is required for all members and for participation in our classes.  Complete the WLAOTC Online Waiver.

Updated Course Payment Instructions

As of January 2025, the club will no longer be accepting checks as payment for classes. This is to alleviate the time required for the treasurer to track and process tuition payments. Students can pay for classes, on the website, through PayPal or by debit/credit card.

If you are unfamiliar with paying on the website, your registrar can send you detailed instructions. The registrar can also refer you to a club member who can guide you through the process.

We understand that this requirement may be a hardship for some. Please reach out to your registrar and they will help find a solution.

Thank you for your understanding.

Requires completion of the Novice tricks class, a Novice tricks Title or approval of the trainer.

Continue to learn new tricks that can be applied to the advanced level of tricks certifications with AKC. These levels are also wonderful opportunities for dogs doing therapy work with children.

Students wishing to continue to higher levels of tricks may participate in this class, working more independently.
