Beginner Lessons/Socialization:
All breeds and ages.
Our beginner program is different from most. Although we do recognize the importance of
socialization in a young dogs life, we do not incorporate socialization and beginning obedience
in the same lesson. Although your socialization program is included in the cost of your private
lesson package, they are at separate times.
A brief agenda for an 8 week private lessons package:
1. Attention Training: This is an absolute must. Your dogs must first learn to pay
attention to you in order for training to be successful.
2. Jumping: We address jumping
very early on in your training. All
aspect of this annoying behavior
are addressed from prevention,
stopping existing jumping, and
meeting and greeting new people,
3. Coming When Called: This is the most important command that every dog
should know reliably. We begin teaching this command from the basics and give you and
the tools you will need to teach a reliable recall.
4. How your dogs learn. Every dog owner needs to have a basic understanding of
how dogs learn in order to be able to communicate effectively.
5. Walking on a loose leash.
6. How to build a healthy relationship with your dog: Leadership roles are 
essential when working with your dog. All aspects of this important topic are addressed.
We teach you to be a firm leader, but a fair leader. Everything is through a motivation,
reward system.
7. How to play properly with your dog: We cover all the details of how to prevent
resource guarding, how to train your dogs to retrieve, and the proper way to offer
your dog toys.
8. How to select the proper
training equipment.
9. For young puppies (8-16wks):
Housebreaking, crate training,
puppy biting are all addressed.
