Family Dog V

You've seen firsthand how effective, and fun, this training can be! Your dog loves it and they are really developing into a great family canine companion. Now you can start to apply all of those skills to some super exciting dog sports that will give your dog a job and further deepen the bond between the two of you!

Course Details

Using fun and engaging training games that make sense to your dog, we will help them understand what they need to do day-to-day to be a "good dog". This includes:

  • Offering automatic sits when they want something

  • Learning to greet people politely

  • Going to their bed during "people time" (mealtime, watching a movie, etc.)

  • Waiting politely at doors instead of rushing through

  • Coming when called

  • Staying in place when asked

  • Introduction to walking nicely on-leash

  • and much more!

Likewise, we will help YOU be a better dog owner! You will walk away with a better understanding of why your dog may be doing something in the first place and how you can better set them, and yourself, up for success.
