Family
Pet Dog Training Class Descriptions
This is an eight week session that is a must for every new puppy as well as older dogs who missed out on this training.
In this class you will learn to raise the perfect pet. Teaching
new puppies correct behaviors when they are young is far more
rewarding than trying to deal with bad behaviors when they
are older. You and your dog will learn the following commands:
Come when called:
A good family pet comes when called, every time! Teaching
a young puppy that coming to you is a good thing will make
both "their life" and "your life" a lot
happier. It is no fun to chase your dog down the street terrified
that he will get hit by a car. When you follow through with
the training provided, you will live with a dog that listens
and is a joy to own.
Stay with me:
You will learn how to make sure your dog does not pull on
the leash ever! We are sure you have seen or experienced a
dog who drags its owner down the street. This makes walking
the dog an unpleasant task. If walking your dog is unpleasant,
you will not want to take them for a walk. When dogs do
not get the exercise they need, many unwanted behavior problems
occur. Learn how to teach your dog to walk on a loose leash
so that the both of you have fun getting some exercise!
Do not jump on people:
No one likes to have a dog jump all over them, even when it's his/her own dog. Learn how to teach your dog not to jump
up unless invited. The command "OFF" is one that
if taught properly makes owning a dog a lot more enjoyable.
Starting OFF with a puppy is a lot easier than waiting until
you have a full grown dog.
Stay put when told.
This is a command that every dog should learn. There is
nothing like having a dog that will stay put when told. There
are times in life when we would like our dog to be quiet
and under control. Learn how to get your dog in a curled
down position and how to keep him there.
Greet people nicely.
A well trained dog is taught to how to meet people respectfully.
Your friends and family will be amazed at how well your dog
listens to you. You will be proud to show off your dog, instead
of being embarrassed by him. This is a command you will be
happy you taught!
Wait at the door and in the Car:
Your dog will learn not to try and push by you at the door.
He will learn to wait and let you go through the door first.
He will not jump out of the car unless you give him permission.
This will save your puppy's life. Many dogs get killed every
day by sneaking out an open door. Learn this command so that
you keep your pup safe!
Leave it:
This is another command every dog needs to
learn. There are times when we either drop something on the
floor, or see something that we do not want our dog to have.
Teaching your pup to leave it, makes life with them so much
more enjoyable.
We will cover barking, digging, chewing, and house breaking.
Give your puppy a chance to grow into the kind of dog with
whom you will want to spend the rest of your life.
Puppies must be at least 10 weeks old and have had their
first permanent shot.
Cost: $165 for 8 weeks (six-foot leash provided)

Adult Beginner Class
This is an eight week session that is a must for any adult or
older puppy. You can always teach an older dog new behaviors.
So if you are tired of your dog ruling the house, this class
will teach you to become the leader. A trained dog is so much
more fun to own, and will allow your dog to live a better
quality of life. No one wants to be pulled down the street,
jumped all over, or to have to chase after his dog if he gets
loose. Dogs who misbehave have a poor quality of life, their
bad behavior keeps them from being an integral part of the
household. The right training will teach your dog good behaviors
and when he responds with correct behaviors, you will want
to spend more time with him. This time together will enrich
your dog's quality of life. Come and learn how to train a
pet you will be proud of, you owe it to yourself and your
dog. You will learn the same commands as the Family Pet Training class listed
above!
Cost: $165 for 8 weeks (six-foot leash provided)
$50 deposit required to hold a space for the next session.

Stay With Me Class
This is a six week Class designed to get your dog to work
with you! Are you tired of walking into the ring with a dog
that thinks he is on vacation! Does your dog either take off,
shut down, or stress out when you are at a show? Do you wonder
if your dog will be a part of your team, or will he suddenly
leave you, either physically or mentally? Whether you are
showing in the obedience or agility ring, or you just want
to be able to take your dog with you anywhere, this is the
class for you. You will teach your dog that staying with you
both physically and mentally is not an option. Your dog will
understand that he must "stay with you", and that
when he does "stay with you" all good things happen!
When you are through with this class your relationship with
your dog will greatly improve. So quit being unsuccessful
in the ring or embarrassed in public with your dog's behavior
and take control! The "stay with me" class will
be the best thing you do for you and your dog!
Cost: $120 for 6 weeks $25 deposit required to hold a space for the next session.
