About Las Cruces Dog Sports

What they offer

Las Cruces Dog Sports trains from its own facility in La Mesa and specializes in dog agility, with classes of up to six dog and handler teams, drill sessions and seminars. It caters mainly to teams that compete or want to compete, offers beginner agility a couple of times a year, and asks dogs that are new to the facility to book a private lesson first. It also offers puppy classes, private lessons, canine fitness and canine massage.
