Registration for Classes:
- Class registration within your membership is due by the 15th of the prior month. Class registrations may be transferred to another class only if the spot you held in your original enrollment can be filled. Please contact
[email protected] prior to the 1st of the month with any transfer requests. Absolutely no substituting or changes may be made to classes after the 1st of each month. Class enrollment ends on the 30th of the prior month. Late enrollment requests will be honored if class space allows.
Additional Information:

o Swims are 20-minute Pro swims. Members may upgrade to an Assisted swim ($10.00 additional fee). An additional “Pro” dog (from your household only) may be added to your 20-minute swim session. (Additional dog fee of $6.50 will apply). No 30-minute swim sessions are permitted.

o Turf rentals and lessons may not be split into multiple sessions.
o Standard swim, water treadmill, and turf rules apply.
o Water treadmill sessions are either 15-minutes or 20-minutes in length, depending of the tier.
- Emergency Policy: In the event of an emergency, a member may transfer one class session to another available class session within the same month, when space allows. Call the facility at 262-641-9540 at least 2 hours before the start of your class time to inform us of your emergency. There is a limit of three transfers per calendar year (otherwise, please refer to membership hold policy). If we are notified after the class session has taken place, then NO transfer will be permitted. The following constitute an emergency:
o Accident/Family emergency
o Hospitalization or injury of the member
o Students will be notified in the event of weather cancellations and will have the option to either (1) transfer to another class session during the current month OR (2) Roll over the class session into the next consecutive month.
- Injured/Sick Dogs: In the event that your dog becomes injured or sick during their membership, you may have the option to substitute another dog from your household. In order to do so, you must submit your request and vet documentation for the injured/sick dog to the Training Manager. The substituted dog must be at the same skill level of your registered class(es).
o If the substituted dog does not meet the skill level of the registered class(es), you may submit a Request Form with an admin fee of $5.00 to substitute another class(es).
o The length of the substitution may not be longer than three consecutive months.
- Family Ala Carte: Family Ala Cartes allow you to add a minimum of two ala carte sessions for an additional household dog per month to your training membership. The guest household dog must have taken Think Pawsitive classes, private lessons or have instructor approval and must be training at the class skill-set level in order to participate in the added class sessions. This household guest must be accompanied by a designated membership of another dog only.
Swapping of dogs in classes is not permitted. Family Ala Cartes may be added on a month-by-month basis.

I must notify Think Pawsitive Dog Training LLC of my intent to terminate my membership by completing a cancellation form at least thirty (30) days prior to the upcoming month (e.g., you must cancel by June 1st in order to not be billed for July). I understand that no “credits”, rollovers, refunds or pro-rated pricing will be given for late termination notices.
I have read, understand and hereby agree to all the terms and conditions of the Think Pawsitive Training Membership Program.
