Lyons Township Dog Training Club

I prefer Animal Sense for Obedience Training but LTDTC is excellent for Agility classes and Confirmation training. They also have therapy classes and Therapy Dog Auditions set up here.
The classes meet at the Odeum in Villa Park. The facility is enormous and makes a great locale for setting up a variety of agility equipment. They’ve been in the business for sixty years so you know you’re dealing with a group of people who’ve been around for a while. They have a giant network of dog lovers, trainers, breeders, and even publicity people. You know, if you want to make your dog a movie star. (ick)

Tessa fell off the balance beam and fought her way through the chute to earn a laughing applause at the end. My girl!
They were recently given an award by the American Kennel Club:
