I will only be accepting serious, committed owners who will hold themselves and their dog to the highest standard. This is an ON-LEASH Program and it’s a great starting place for a lot of dogs and people! If you want to have clear, relaxed communication with your dog, have 100% control on a leash and a reliable obedience foundation, then this is for you! Our priority during the 2 weeks is to master on leash obedience like leash manners (Lets Go Command) and extended Sit and Down Stays at leash distance around distractions such as toys, dogs and people.Your dog will be properly conditioned to an educator e-collar in accordance with the obedience commands mentioned above. I don’t like to rush dogs into learning new commands and 2 weeks is a relatively short amount of time. So it’s in the dogs and owners best interest that we focus on a two to three critical leash commands and skills and get really good at them.
During your dogs stay, he or she will be living in my home and are treated like one of my own dogs. I spend ample time with each training dog integrating them into my pack and training in a home setting, not a loud boarding facility. We follow strict safety protocols and your dog will be under 24/7 watch and care. Your dog will spend their time adapting to a healthy daily routine, learning and acquiring advanced leash obedience and practicing in real worl situations. This develops a dog with a strong, stable mindset that no longer reacts out of fear and impulse, but clear directions and leadership from their loving owner. Owners who will not only learn how to maintain the training, but improve upon it.
All commands are taught thoroughly to ensure reliability near distractions like toys, food, people and my personal dogs, Atlas and Sammy. After our final lesson and 4 hours of practicing with your dog, you will go home with a plan of improvement and an extensive go home guide, as well as a new found confidence in yourself and especially your pup. Once you establish a clear method of communication, remain consistent with your boundaries and take the necessary steps of incremental improvement, you can become the leader your dog needs. This is how you develop a true bond based on trust and leadership allowing for a relationship stronger than ever.
TRAINING
Lets Go - On Leash - Walking properly in position on leash, without pulling, barking, lunging or reacting/barking at dogs or distractions while staying safe and maintaining control.
Heel & Auto Sit - On Leash - Walk your dog with ease and confidence. “Heel” is our On-leash structured walk. Your dog is to walk directly behind your hip and keep pace with you. Your dog must sit when you stop walking and remain seated until given further direction. A strong heel command can massively improve your dogs confidence in themselves and their owner. Especially useful in public, around triggers or uncomfortable situations and environments.
Sitstay & Downstay - On Leash - We teach an implied, extended Sit and Down command and proof your dogs ability to stay in the position by gradually adding duration, distance and distractions throughout our training sessions. A solid Down command is ideal for training your dog to be calm on command, taking your dog hiking, or at restaurant patios.
