Dog Training Programs

Private Lessons

Private lessons are one-on-one training sessions geared specifically toward your training goals. Every dog and family is considered as an invidual--training programs and focus are customized to each family's needs and expectations.**

Group dog training lessons

These training classes are held in a group setting. We offer puppy classes for puppies under 6 months old. Puppy class is geared toward setting puppies up for success--topics include environmental socialization, dog socialization, engagement, basic manners and common puppy behavior problems. Basic obedience group classes are geared toward more specific obedience behaviors and working engagement with your dog around distractions.**

Training Camp

Training camp is a board and train style program where your dog comes to stay with us for an intensive training program. This is a great solution for homes with busy lifestyles or behavior problems beyond what you are comfortable overcoming. Our campers stay in home with us and work multiple times a day. Each training camp is specifically tailored toward each dog's individual needs and behaviors. They are exposed to different environments and challenges they may be facing in their regular day-to-day life. At the conclusion of camp, we go over your dog's new skillset and provide you a detailed plan for continued training and management at home. After going home, we will meet again for follow up lessons to ensure your success.**

Specialty Classes

Our passion is to encourage you to enjoy training your dog as much as we do! There are a variety of options available for you to explore and enjoy with your dog. Our specialty classes allow you to strengthen the bond with your dog as well as provide them the mental exercise they so enjoy. Classes include-- nosework, agility foundation, tricks/circus class, flyball and tracking.**

Engagement & Competition Obedience

Our great passion is relationship building with your dog--this is done through building engagement by forging a harmonious working relationship with your dog. Some of our clients come to us for engagement so they can have a well mannered dog in public--others come to us to fine tune their obedience skills for competition. No matter your goals, we aim to identify disconnects or obstacles in your current training program and find creative and motivational solutions to improve that relationship and provide challenges to set you up for success.**

Seminars

Our diverse training and veterinary field background allows us to deliver many options for training seminars. Our popular seminars include training the trainers (offering business and training solutions to other dog trainers), engagement and obedience seminars and canine conditioning workshops.

Professional & Community Education

Community education is something we are very passionate about. We are regularly providing lectures on behavior and handling in the clinical setting to veterinary clinic staff, education to rescue groups for foster families, basic first aid and identifying illness to pet owners and rescue groups and careers with animals to high school students.
