Pre-Obedience Training

This is a critical time in your dog's life. Your pup will believe that you are more important than the training equipment!Establishing proper rank structure, socialization techniques, and preventing unwanted behaviors are accomplished. This phase is included, if applicable, in all obedience programs.Puppies between 7 and 16 weeks of age can learn simple directions through association (classical conditioning) without leashes or harsh training collars.

Obedience Training

All obedience programs require owner participation - YOU will learn how to train your dog! "Positive Reinforcement" methods are used; chain collars are discouraged! Your dog will learn to walk on a leash without pulling, sit automatically, stay for usable lengths of time and learn boundary adherence in and around your property.Basic (on leash) and Advanced (off leash) lessons, separately or together, are available. Each lesson lasts approximately one hour and is scheduled.Adolescent, adult and senior dogs are eligible, and each obedience program is tailored to you and your dog's specific needs.

Behavior Modification

Unwanted behavior is really a symptom of disobedience or lack of enough leadership offered by you to your dog.In addition, too much attention can be given to the behavior problem, convincing your dog that it's the best way to get attention! Each problem is addressed completely, so as to determine the cause, such as:• House soiling.
• Destructive chewing.
• Digging.
• Chasing people and/or cars.
• Jumping up.
• Over barking.
• Aggression towards people and/or dogs.
• Biting.
• Not coming when called.
