Trainer always present
Ryker offers the finest dog training facility in the Fresno region. Our well-lit, fully matted, temperature-controlled training area measures approximately thirty by forty feet, providing more than enough room for your dog to get physical while he learns.
This indoor space is completely safe and secure, and a trainer is always present to supervise all activity. That is what allows you to work with your dog off-leash without worrying that he will run away and get lost, injured, or into trouble.
To protect your dogs' health, we sanitize the training area with the same types of professional-grade cleansers and disinfectants veterinarians use to prevent disease transmission in their examination rooms.
