  ALBANY OBEDIENCE CLUB

AOC merchandise is now available from Ernie's Agility Pro Shop.  A portion of every purchase is donated to AOC.  Help the club out: go shopping  here!  (When you select an item, you'll get several options for logo placement: choose the one you like!)


Albany Obedience Club was established in 1955.  Its original focus was training and trialling in competitive Obedience.  Today, club members trial their dogs in many different performance sports, and we regularly offer classes in Agility, Obedience, Rally and Scent Work. 


Looking to have a well-behaved pet, or want an opportunity just to have fun with your dog?  We also offer classes in multiple levels of CGC, obedience, tricks and more!  


Our instructors are club members who volunteer their time to pass on their knowledge, experience and love of dogs.


Classes are open to non-members on a space available basis.
