WHAT TO EXPECT

Training lessons are approximately one hour in duration. Generally, we meet every other week and offer flexible training times to accommodate busy schedules. During your lesson you should anticipate 40 – 45 minutes of hands-on training with the balance of the lesson devoted to addressing specific questions or issues. Each lesson is customized to your particular training needs and your dog’s behavior, learning style and attitude.

  • Training lessons are specifically tailored to your needs and your dog’s unique personality
  • Once obedience commands are taught we show you how to integrate them into the everyday environment resulting in good manners around the home
  • Expect Homework! The more you practice with your dog, the faster you will see results
  • Since each dog is treated as an individual you and your pet will advance at your own pace
