Basic Obedience Course Highlights

This course is a must for every dog and their owner!  You can use this class to train your dog, bond with your dog, and have some fun time every week with your dog.

Dogs that are obedience trained are better companions, are happier, and  just more fun to have around.

This class is a good starting point for the over 6 month old dog with no previous training, and is also a great tune up for dogs which have had previous training but need some refresher work. 

Class size is limited to 8 dogs per class. This allows plenty of  personal attention for you and your dog. 

We use positive reinforcement to train dogs, and specialize in "clicker training" which is  a fast, effective, and fun method to train animals of any kind. We will teach you smarter ways to stop bad behaviors so that you will need to use little if any punishment to train your best friend.

The 8-week course will include :

 -teaching your dog to pay attention to you --even with other people and dogs around

-walk on the leash without pulling and pay attention while walking on a leash

-sit and down on one command

-stay even with distractions

-stop jumping up on people 

-come when called (even away from toys and food)

-wait at the door (not bolting out )

All of our training exercises are also good preparation for the AKC Canine Good Citizen Test.

Time will also be made for questions & specific behavior problems you may be having with your dog.
