Dog Training that Gets Results

Group Classes

Novice Level 1 (6 weeks)

Pre-requisite - dogs must be at least 18 weeks old.

Group classes are done with a leash and training collar. We prefer not to use food with mature dogs. We find that we get more reliable results with dogs when we substitute lots of meaningful heartfelt praise for food. Unlike a lot of other training programs that fail in the presence of distractions, our training stands up to distractions because we actually train with distractions. Your dog will learn to walk on leash while you walk past our resident distractions….food, toys and other living creatures. You will learn how to use distractions in your environment to your advantage. Sure you have to do the work but you will have the necessary skills to do the work. This course lays the foundation for the perfect family pet or can lead to a variety of dog sports, such as Rally-O, competitive obedience, agility, or hunting. It is important to keep in mind that although obedience training is a competitive dog sport, the exercises are actually based on meeting the needs of the ideal family pet.

Novice Level 2 (6 weeks)

Pre-requisite - Level 1

Students are always asking for another class to follow up on the Level one class so we have obliged. This course builds on the skills that you have already learned. Your dog must be able to pass the 'string test' to proceed with this course. This course perfects heeling and develops off leash skills such as coming when called, regardless of distractions. Your dog will be able to do a stand stay, down stay and a sit stay as well as figure eight. Skills learned in this class will prepare you to compete in Novice Level obedience and we will provide trial level skills to those wishing to compete at no extra charge.
