Our Goals! AVID wishes to bring
tools to people and dogs to strengthen
their relationships. Whether your dog is
destined to be a sports dog, an
obedience prospect or simply to be your
loving lap dog, the foundation skills we
offer are all so important. We are
pleased to have instructed many of our
AVID students to achieve AAC top
titles as well as AAC Regional and
National successes.
