On and Off Leash Obedience

Ages 4 months and older

Let’s get back to basics: 

Overview:

Leash or no leash we’ll make your walks and basic commands a no brainer.

Obedience is the framework to advance your dog’s skills as they mature into adulthood.

Basic commands;

• Heel

• Sit

• Stay

• Down

• Come

• Place (go to your bed)

are taught first and then worked through real life scenarios and distractions. Working under distraction proofs you and your dog’s hard work and the line of communication that has been formed between you.

Off Leash Training

is completed with the incorporation of a remote E-Collar system. Using a balanced training method we are able to balance structure with reward which in turn gives your dog the freedom that they earn.

Program styles:

• Private lessons are one on one sessions where we meet for one hour, typically once a week, to work together on your handling skills while teaching your dog along side. You then take what we have covered and practice until our next lesson before advancing.

• Our 3 week Day School that runs Monday through Friday from approximately 9am to 3pm is a bootcamp style of training. This program option is a more intensive program, yet allows for your dog to come home at night to relax in their own home, replay the day’s work, and recharge for the next day. A graduation lesson is scheduled for the end of training where everything your dog has learned is transferred back to you as the owner in order to make training universal. This allows you to maintain their level of training and take it into your day to day life.

Behavior Modification

No age requirement

Let’s redirect and desensitize:

Whether your dog is reactive, aggressive towards others, or struggling with anxiety we are here to help desensitize your dog while working to counter-condition their behaviors and mental association with that stimulus.

Behavior Modification is done in small steps, typically through one on one private lessons. In most cases we are not only changing the habits of your dog but you as well. By improving your do’g’s confidence and trust in your handling under stressful encounters, we can better your relationship and communication to work together instead of against one another.

Some behaviors that can be addressed:

• Anxiety

• Destruction

• Reactivity

• Aggression

• Fear
