What we’re about
Welcome to Doggos! We are a socialization and training club for dogs that was established in 2014. The primary focus of this group is for dogs and people to socialize and learn in a safe and respectful, and positive environment.
The organizer is Kay Gramm, CPDT-KA. This professional certification asserts that we use least intrusive, minimally aversive methods for training, teaching, learning.
The events in the group are held in either in Placer County or in South Lake Tahoe and may include:
- GROUP WALKS and/or HIKES led by trainer
- DOG PLAY GROUPS
- DOG TRAINING CLASSES by certified professional trainer
- CERTIFICATIONS for AKC CGC, CGC(A), CGC(U) and TRICK DOG
- THERAPY DOG TRAINING and CERTIFICATION
- FOSTER DOG TRAINING
- SERVICE DOG TRAINING
What are our members like?
- Positive. We support each other and do not condone trolls or other jerks at our events or on our social media platforms.
- Diverse. We love all types of people and all types of dogs.
- Supportive. We need each other to grow and learn.
- Timely. We arrive on time or early for events so as to not be disruptive.
- Respectful. We respect each other's space and do not let our dogs intrude into others' areas without consent.

- Consistent. We know consistency is the key to building solid behavior.
