This is an amazing program that is more hands on for the owner. A certified Dog Trainer will lay the foundation during the sessions in our facility, then set owners up for success with detailed report cards and homework assignments to be continued in the home. Private lessons and go-home lessons serve as a hand-in-hand coaching opportunity for owners to learn alongside our Certified Dog Trainer. If you want to be more involved with your dogs training and be able to train them at home with little to no help, this program is for you.

This program is customizable to fit your lifestyle. Our trainers utilize their findings from your consultation to tailor curriculum to best suit the needs of you and your pet. We are able to structure the layout of this program (4-hour trainings in the facility, private lessons, and group classes) based on the nature and severity of your pet’s specific training needs.

Not all dogs fit into a standard training program. Therefore we have created Training Unit Packages to allow for ultimate customization. Training Units allow you to build the perfect combo of training lessons for yourself and your pup.
