Private In Home Puppy Sessions

Start your new puppy out with a personalized program that helps you to incorporate your new puppy into your family's lifestyle.

Understanding how a puppy grows, develops and learns is the first step in creating a healthy bond and trusting relationship that can be used to lay the ground work for teaching obedience.

Let us help you to teach your puppy about where to eliminate; what to chew on; how to interact with children; and basic manners as well as preventing other common behavioral problems that can be frustrating for both you and your new puppy.


Private In Home Training

Our most popular training program is our 6 session private in home program. This well rounded program is designed to help you to teach your canine companion all of the formal obedience commands (heel, sit, stay, down, come) as well as address any behavioral concerns such as: housebreaking, biting, mouthing, nipping, chewing, digging, barking, jumping, separation anxiety, aggression or any other specific training issues your household requires.

We will be working with your entire family at your home or a nearby park and at a pace that suits you and your dog. Schedule as we go and take as much time as you need to practice between sessions!

In addition to all of your private lessons, this program includes access to all of our obedience classes for the life of your dog to support what you learn in the one on one program. Your training will focus on mastering the obedience commands in the home environment and then proofing them with the added distractions of the group environment. You will have the added benefit of consistency by having the same trainer for both your private training as well as your group classes.
