Our trainer's sights are set on empowering you with the confidence to work with your dog in practical situations through strong communication. We only take 3 to 5 dogs at a time and usually have a wait list of 3-4 weeks out. During your dog's continuous stay of 2, 3, 4 or 6 weeks, we will build skills and apply them to real life scenarios that they will take with them when they return home.

We will teach your furball all the basic manners and obedience commands that you need to have a well-behaved dog. You'll have a little more work to do when your dog comes home than clients in most of our programs, because 2 weeks doesn't cover all the practice around a variety of distractions to make sure they're well equipped to listen to people whose implementation may be less precise than our trainers.

Program Expectations
We can teach your dog wonderful behaviors, but you have to consistently enforce the rules when they come home. We start off by taking your dog for 2 weeks to train them on our Basic Obedience program. Your dog then returns home for 2-3 weeks where we'll continue with 2 Private Lessons with your family. This time at home allows us to see which methods your family enforces and where you need a little extra help. Your dog then joins us for another 2 weeks so that we can rigorously work on their problem areas we noticed. When your dog comes home finally, the job of regular correction will be much easier. Our trainer will return for 2 more Private Lessons to assure your success.
