Classroom Training Level Five
Advanced Training "PiSquared" (8 weeks)

Success at the Intermediate Level qualifies your dog to enter our top advanced level of training known as the PiSquared Class (our "tongue in cheek" name for the "top advanced level"). This level has evolved into a "continuing education" course for those students who simply cannot get enough dog training. In other words, you can continue training with the same group of people for as long as you desire. There are always new things to learn and new challenges in every session.
PiSquared Level members celebrate the Christmas season with an annual Pi Squared Christmas party (all PiSquared dogs are invited). They also participate in parades and exhibitions for schools and community associations to demonstrate their skills and illustrate the advantages and joys of sharing their lives with a "Canine Good Citizen".
The Pi Squared Level Orientation has now become known as the "Pizza PiSquared Orientation" because the groups have decided to meet at a local pizza parlor for the orientation class.
At the end of the training year (May) all of the PiSquared classes compete in the "Annual PiSquared Olympics" in various Obedience and Agility competitions while enjoying an outdoor BBQ. Prizes are awarded for the top scores in each category. The dog with the best overall scores is awarded the "Top Dog Of The Year" trophy. The Pi Squared Level has grown into a group of people who consider themselves friends and are always happy to accept new friends into "the club".
