Training for All Skill Levels
We offer a range of dog training classes to accommodate every stage of your dog’s development:
- Puppy Training: Start your puppy off on the right paw with our Puppy Training class. Designed for dogs 10 weeks to 6 months old, this class focuses on basic commands, socialization, and building confidence. Your puppy will learn essential skills like sit, stay, come, and how to walk politely on a leash. We also address common puppy behaviors such as nipping, chewing, and house training.
- Basic Obedience: This class is perfect for dogs of any age who need help mastering essential commands and improving their overall behavior. We focus on core obedience skills like sit, down, stay, and recall, as well as leash walking and impulse control. This class helps establish you as the leader while building trust and respect between you and your dog.
- Continuing Education: For dogs who have mastered the basics and are ready for more challenging tasks, our continuing education class offers the next level of training. Your dog will learn to respond to commands even in high-distraction environments, perform longer stays, and maintain control off-leash. This class is ideal for dogs that need fine-tuning.
- Behavioral Modification: If your dog is struggling with specific behavioral issues like aggression, fear, or separation anxiety, our Behavioral Modification class provides a custom plan to address these challenges. Richard will work closely with you to identify the root cause of the behavior and implement effective solutions that create lasting positive change.
