Why Train?
Life With Dogs Made Easier...
At some point, someone in your household might leave a door ajar
or a gate unlatched.  Imagine your relief if, instead of bolting out to the street, into the path of an oncoming car, your dog responded instantly to your request to "Wait!" at the door, or turn back and "Come!"
Training can be the difference between life and death!


Puppy Training
(For puppies age 11-17 weeks)

Hands feel like pincushions?  Pup got the zoomies every afternoon?  Do you find yourself saying, "How do I get this puppy to stop___?"  Let us help you transform your piranha pup into a well behaved companion.

Our puppy classes focus on:
House Training - Socialization - Puppy Nipping & Chewing

Body Handling - Object Exchange (Give it Back Nicely)       

Puppy Socialization
Vaccinations and Socialization 
Puppy Nipping Guide
 

No Dog is Too Old to Learn
(Classes for dogs 17 weeks and older)

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to tell your dog what behaviors you'd him to do, instead of waiting for him to be "wrong" and endlessly correcting him, which is unpleasant for both of you.
