Question 1

What commands can I expect my dog to learn?

Accepted Answer

Following completion of the board-in training program, your furry friend will master the essential commands of COME, SIT, STAY, HEEL, and DOWN.

Question 2

What's the best way to train for unwanted behaviors, like jumping and leash pulling?

Accepted Answer

In our Basic Obedience Training Programs, we use a combination of command repetition, alphamanship, tone of voice, and the right collar to teach your dog basic manners and commands. Through consistent training, each trainer reinforces desirable behaviors and does away with unwanted behavior, making your dog more focused and responsive, while also building a stronger bond with you. For more severe or aggressive behaviors, we recommend our Behavior Modification programs.

Question 3

What other canine services do you provide?

Accepted Answer

We provide one-on-one training in your home or at our facility. Our board-in training programs vary in length depending on your dog's age and needs. Our group classes offer an excellent opportunity for your dog to learn in a social setting while reinforcing basic obedience skills. For more intensive training, our Behavior Modification programs provide more opportunities to work through tough behaviors.

Question 4

What's the difference between House Calls, Group Classes, One-on-One Training and Board-In Training?

Accepted Answer

House calls provide personalized dog obedience training in your own home. Group classes are great for socialization and reinforcing commands in a controlled environment. One-on-One training is a private training visit completed at the facility. Board-In training offers ample time learning basic commands, socialization skills, and appropriate house manners.

Question 5

How do you handle excitable or overstimulated dogs in training?

Accepted Answer

For excitable dogs, we focus on reducing triggers and building confidence through controlled exposure and positive reinforcement. Our training specialists work on desensitizing your anxious dog to specific stimuli, using clear commands and consistent responses to redirect their energy. We use calm, confident leadership and the right training tools to help your dog become more comfortable in situations that previously caused anxiety or reactivity.
