Obedience and Manners
Does your dog jump all over guests, pull on leash or play keep away when you really want him to come to you? If this sounds familiar, then you need to check out our private Coaching and Day Training programs below!
When you choose our Coaching program, you'll be guided through each step in teaching your dog new obedience skills, then learn the handling techniques needed to manage your dog and use their obedience training to address behaviour problems you are facing. With Day Training, we'll fast-track your dog's training to make it easier for you to handle them and continue or maintain their training. In each program, your dog will learn core obedience skills to varying levels of understanding and reliability (depending on length of program and dog's individual history). We'll also address behaviour problems using their newly learned obedience cues. Core obedience skills include: Eye contact, Sit, Down, Stay, Place, Leave it, Come and Heel |
