Our Programs
With endless advice, videos, and training trends, it can be difficult to know what your dog really needs. Let our experience simplify the process and help you find the right training for you and your dog.
Puppy Development
Bringing home a new puppy is exciting, but the first few months of your dogs life are the most critical in your dogs overall development. Our puppy development consultations are designed to give you a clear foundation from day one and help you understand what your puppy needs as they grow.
Depending on your needs and schedule, consultations and lessons may be available in person, in a small group setting, or over the phone.
We will discuss practical guidance for your puppy's development, including but not limited to:
Proper socialization and environmental exposure
Housebreaking and Potty Training
Introduction to training and manners
Appropriate toys and energy outlets
Leash handling, equipment acclimation
Building confidence and good habits
Common mistakes and challenges
Preparing your puppy for the next stage of their development
Private Lessons
Our private lessons provide one on one training tailored specifically to you and your dog. We focus on the behaviors, challenges, and goals that are specific to you, while teaching you the skills and understanding needed to continue your dogs training at home.
Before scheduling, we will discuss your needs and determine whether private lessons are the right fit for you and your dog.
With any dog training program, the dog is only half of the equation of a successful team. The progress made during training is most successful when the owner understands what the dog has learned and knows how to continue reinforcing those behaviors at home.
Residency Programs
Our residency programs give your dog the opportunity to receive focused, one on one, consistent training in a structured environment while allowing us to build skills at an appropriate pace. We work on developing your dogs obedience, communication, understanding, manners, and overall foundation for real life reliablity. At the end of your dogs residency, we then teach you how to continue & maintain your dogs progress once you return home with them.

Extensive educational videos to help understand your dogs training and behavior

4 Week Residency
Our 4-week residency is designed for owners who are looking for a more comprehensive level of training and development. With additional time in the program, we are able to move beyond the level of the 2 week and spend more time developing reliabilty, greater distractions, and overall more solid comprehension.
Training will include understanding of obedience commands including but not limited to: sit, down, heel, come, "good" & "no", kennel, drop it, the place command, as well as off leash around distractions and overall proofing of obedience training. As your dog develops clearer understanding of these commands, we increase duration, distraction, and difficulty to set them up for success for everyday life once returning home.
2 Week Residency
This program is designed for owners who want to address. specific training concerns while giving their dog a solid foundation in obedience. During the two-week residency, we work on practical skills that improve communication between you and your dog and create a more reliable foundation for everyday life. Our goal is to address the behaviors that are affecting your everyday life while developing the communication and obedience skills needed to continue making progress at home.
During the two-week residency, we develop your dogs training alongside commands such as sit, down, heel, come, "good" & "no", drop it, kennel and work on developing better habits and manners in your dogs behavior.
This program is designed to give you a solid foundation that will allow you to successfully continue working and communicating with your dog for as long as you remain consistent with what you and your dog have learned.
Training doesn't end when your dog returns home. We provide instruction to help you understand the commands, handling technqiues, and reinforcement necessary for success.
