Private Dog Training Programs
We offer a variety of dog training options. We can start training your dog for you or work with you and your dog one-on-one.Below is a list of our private dog training programs. We also offer dog training classes.
Dog Training Day School
Our Dog Training Day School consists of eight days of dog training and enrichment, two check-in sessions, and one formal training session with the trainer who worked with your dog. In these dog training sessions, our trainer will provide a progress review and offer training information and dog training tips to help you continue obedience training at home. The check-in sessions occur after Day 4 and Day 8, and the formal lesson occurs in the following 1-2 weeks. Our trainer can also recommend dog training tools and supplies that will maximize your dog’s success.
While in day school, dogs are exposed to everyday distractions like bikes, nature, and other dogs. These distractions provide a realistic environment for basic and advanced obedience training, and especially loose leash walking.

Puppy Head Start
This puppy training program is for puppies 8 to 16 weeks of age. It is perfect for puppies that are unable to attend our Puppy Kindergarten Class or for those who would like to get started right away on training. The major concentrations of this puppy training program are dog socialization and preventing unwanted behaviors. Owners learn to train their dogs in a positive and consistent manner. The program consists of two private dog training lessons that are held at our facility and around town. In order to attend, puppies must be at least 10 days past their first Distemper vaccine. Bordetella is recommended, but not required for this program.

Puppy Potty Training Assistance Program (PPTAP)
This dog potty training program is specifically designed for puppies 8 weeks to 5 months old that need assistance with their potty training skills. We can also accommodate older puppies who simply need dog socialization, work on manners, or a place to play while their people are at work or otherwise occupied. PPTAP is a four-week dog training program. The puppy must attend dog daycare every day for 20 consecutive weekdays. Positive reinforcement and lots of praise are used to encourage the pup to develop positive potty habits, signals, and basic manners. Your family will also be given dog training tips to help support positive potty behavior at home. The program also includes naptime where we can work on dog crate training if desired. In addition, the pups receive up to ten hours per day of supervised social interaction with both puppies and older dogs. The amount of time depends upon when you drop-off and pick-up. During this time they will also interact with the staff, which helps build their socialization with people and self-confidence. Once the puppy has completed the Puppy Potty Training Assistance Program, they may continue to attend dog daycare at your convenience until six months of age, at which time spay/neuter is required. IMPORTANT NOTE: No puppy can be guaranteed to be fully potty trained in four short weeks. Many puppies are not reliable with their potty training skills until 8 months or older. However, four weeks in the Puppy Potty Training Assistance Program will give you and your pup many of the skills and successes on which to build a lifetime of positive potty habits!
$500 – includes 20-consecutive days of dog daycare and dog training
