For your dog that could use a little more guidance than our Mind Your Manners program we offer a more customized private lesson bundle. Our private lessons are aimed at more than just manners but creating a dog that everyone wants to be around. In these four lessons we work on manners such as sit, stay, down, the “place” command - for your dog to go to a specific mat or bed until released even with distractions, and other undesirable manners as well as added benefits of nice leash walking, coming when called, waiting patiently for food, and even socialization or the use of an e-collar if desired. Other manners or behaviors can also be worked on during our four lessons and are customizable to the unique requirements of you and your dog.

You brought that new puppy home and now don’t know what to do? Our Puppy Head Start Program is for dogs ages 8 weeks to 18 months of age to help get you and your puppy on the right track. Since puppies, like children, are sponges and learn quickly, the earlier you can start the better. Typical “puppy” behavior like chewing, peeing in the house, walking nicely on a leash, sit, food manners and the “place” command will all be addressed during this 2-hour lesson. By learning these valuable training tools and practicing them long after the lesson is over you will help prevent any future bad manners in these areas. With a good training foundation your puppy will grow up to be a well-mannered good canine that is a joy to be around.
