WELCOME to the TRAINING PAGE

How do we train?

Working in the privacy of your home, we will review the behaviors you want to add/change and then practice the training techniques with your dog.

After each session, you will receive *customized* training guidelines and helpful reminders.

During the training process you will develop a keener awareness of your dog, what effects his world, and why.

Aversive training techniques using pain, fear, or intimidation will not be used or taught.

What can we learn?

Basic Manners - Including but not limited to SIT, STAY, DOWN, OFF, WALK on a LEASH, GREETINGS

Problem Behaviors - We can address problem behaviors such as chewing, excessive barking, jumping on people, resource guarding, leash aggression, shyness around strangers

How long is a training session?

Each training session lasts one to two hours (depending on your schedule and your dog).

The number of training sessions needed will also depend on you and your dog. Most behaviors can be addressed within two to three sessions.

Practice means progress and consistency is the key!

How much does it cost?

The cost is $60 per hour.                                     Each training session lasts one to two hours.

What to Expect During Training

Dogs are social creatures, however most dogs are placed in a human world on human terms. We, therefore, are responsible for their canine health and mental well-being!

In order to accomplish this, all prospective clients should consider the following:

A. Your dog needs to live inside the home with you

B. Learning takes time! You will need to practice the new behaviors you are learning and teaching your dog. Ask yourself, How successful do I want us to be?

C. Each member of the family needs should be encouraged to take part in the training. We want our dog to recognize that humans provide leadership, guidance, and are the source of all things good and wonderful.
