About Cramer Canine Consulting

Who runs it

Cramer Canine Consulting publishes its address as "N5916 Willow Road, Plymouth, WI 53073 in Building 2, Unit 4," and its about page says the company "was incorporated by Bob and Julie Cramer in January of 2023" and that "In March of 2023, Cramer Canine Consulting, LLC opened their training center." The page lists "Julie Cramer Lead Trainer/Owner/CGC Evaluator" and "Bob Cramer Assistant Trainer/Owner," and says Julie "has been training dogs in the area for the past 30 years." It adds that she "is the Training Director for Great Lakes SAR K9 Inc., working with Trailing, Area and Detection." Four more instructors are named on the same page, among them two further CGC evaluators.

What you can book

The classes page runs a graded ladder. Puppy work starts with "Puppy Kindergarten" and the AKC-recognized "STAR Puppy" program, which the site says "emphasizes key areas such as socialization, play, human interaction, separation, and behavior shaping." Obedience begins with "Good Dog Intro to Obedience" for "dogs aged 1 year and older who have never been in a class setting," then "Basic K9 Manners – AKC Canine Good Citizen," "Beyond Basic – AKC Community Canine," "Intermediate Obedience" and "Advanced Obedience," each gated behind the one before it. Rally, nosework and agility appear alongside them, and the about page sums the menu up as "classes from Puppy Kindetgarten through Advanced obedience, Nosework, Rally and Fundamentals of Agility."

Prices and class sizes, as published

The classes page states that "6 week classes are now $125.00," with Puppy Kindergarten listed at "6 weeks of 45 minutes for $120.00" and CGC testing on week 7 at $20.00. A multi-dog or multi-class discount is published as "$125 first dog or class / $110 each additional dog or class." The site caps "Obedience, Puppy, Good Dog, and Nosework classes" at "a maximum of 8 dogs per class" and agility and rally at 6, and says "Classes will only proceed if they have at least 3 dogs enrolled." Separately, "Agility Floor Time is set up for 30 minute intervals for $30" on Wednesday evenings, for handlers who already have equipment experience.
