GOOD MANNERS & OBEDIENCE

ALL GOOD MANNERS & OBEDIENCE sessions begin
with a one-hour consultation as a way to get to know one another, address your specific needs and goals, and begin training process.

PUPPY PARENTING
For new puppy owners. Learn how to set up your home, yourself and your puppy for easy training and a great relationship from day one. Includes: house and crate training, socializing, teething, biting, jumping, diet, good toys, safety, puppies and children, good manners, and more. You will
come away with confidence to understand and successfully raise your puppy.

BEGINNING OBEDIENCE
For puppies and adult dogs with no prior training.
Learn basic obedience skills that all dogs should know—
including: watch, sit, stand, down, stay, come, gentle leash walking and heeling. Also learn how to stop unwanted behavior like jumping and nipping. Clicker training or a modified positive reinforcement method will be used to train you and your dog to work together as a strong team.

ADOLESCENT ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENTS & SKILL STRENGTHENING
For adolescent and adult dogs who have already been trained in basic obedience. Take your initial training to a next step to assure reliable performance under distracting conditions or work with unruly or overly exhuberant behavior like: jumping on guests, not listening, barking, unwillingness to come, destructive digging, and chewing. Also a good way to strengthen skills needed to take the AKC's Canine Good Citizen™ test or other animal assisted therapy programs.
Sessions will be individually designed for your needs.
