Ultimate Canine
It is the first day of dog training class. You arrive dragging behind your dog. He is barking and jumping on everyone so happy and excited to be out and about. You are so embarrassed your dog is so unruly. Fast forward to completion of our Ultimate Canine program. You're walking with your head held high. Your dog is walking beside you periodically checking in with you. He barely even looks at the other dogs in the parking lot. You see a friend up ahead. As you stop to say hello, your dog sits so politely beside you. Your friend is so impressed. "Wow, your dog is so well behaved". This is not a fictional story. This is YOUR DOG after completing our Ultimate Canine program.
Your dog will learn all of the basic obedience commands in a group setting. He will learn to focus on you and pay attention even when distracted by other people and dogs. He will learn to sit, down and stand when you ask. Walking will no longer be something you dread because he is going to be walking at your side. You no longer have to worry about him bolting out the door because he is going to wait until he is invited to come out. He will learn that leave it means do not smell it, taste it or touch it, it is not for you. Wouldn't it be great if your dog went to his bed to lie down when you are busy? When he masters settle that is just what he will do. Staying in a position will not be a problem even when he can't see you. When your dog is in a tight place he will learn to back up when you ask him to. Your dog will come running when you call him even when he can't see you. Your dog will drop into down at a seconds notice no matter how far away you are. This one thing may save his life one day. In addition, he will master all ten components of the Canine Good Citizen test and will pass the actual test with flying colors. Just for fun, he will learn two trick behaviors of your choice; shake hello, crawl, roll over, high five, or take a bow so you can impress your friends at the next BBQ.
Then to top it off you will receive one in home private lesson so that any behavior issues can be addressed. We are not done yet though. Socialization is an often forgotten part of dog training. So, we offer unlimited access to our Friendly Fido socialization class for 1 year. YOU WILL HAVE THE ULTIMATE CANINE.

Dream Dog
After completing the Dream Dog program your dog is going to know all of his basic obedience commands. He will walk nicely beside you on leash, he will pay attention when he hears his name, no longer jump up on house guests or you,
Your dog will sit, down, stand and stay right when you ask, no more chasing him around because he is going to come running when you call him whether he can see you or not. Because he will learn to wait for an invitation before going out the door, you no longer have to worry about him bolting down the street. Getting stuck in tight places will be a thing of the past as he learns to back up on command. Going to his bed to lie down until you tell him while you are busy is a dream. Finally, your dog will drop into down immediately where he is and this just may save his life. To prove to the world what a dream your dog is he is going to prepare for and pass the CGC test.

Your dog will be a mannered mutt upon completing our program.

Friendly Fido
The friendly fido class is designed to provide necessary socialization in a fun filled setting. Your dog will learn to pay attention to you even with the distraction of other dogs and people. This class is beneficial to dogs that are reactive when they see other dogs, as they will learn to focus on their owner no matter what. Friendly Fido also helps fearful and anxious dogs feel more comfortable in their environment. Fun trick behaviors are also taught in the friendly fido class. All three trainers are available to provide assistance during this class so we are able to give you lots of one on one instruction. You will learn to bond with your dog and build a strong relationship built on trust.
1 hour weekly sessions (except 3 weeks prior to each CGC test)
$50 for 3 sessions
(FRIENDLY FIDO REQUIRES PROOF OF COMPLETION OF A RECOGNIZED BASIC OBEDIENCE TRAINING PROGRAM)
Group Class Rules and Regulations:
Dogs must be kept apart at all times. Please be aware of the other dogs coming to class and keep your dog on a short leash. Do not allow your dog to run up to other dogs in the class. Some dogs value their personal space and may react aggressively to another dog in their face. We will conduct meet and greets while in group class under the supervision of a trainer.
Do bring lots of treats to class. Now this may shock you, here are examples of the best treats to use: Hotdogs, Chicken, Cheese, Left overs, any thing that your dog highly values. However, the treats need to be "PEA" size. No matter the size of the dog. Bring a variety of treats so your dog has no idea what he is going to get. If you have treats left over after class simply pop the bag in the freezer until your next training session. Only give treats when your dog does something you have asked. He must earn all treats from now on. If you wish to reward him for being cute, use dog biscuits or dental chews. Do not give training treats for free.
If you have a very energetic dog, please exercise him 1/2 hour prior to class. In order to change his energy level you need to raise his heart rate. Getting a bucket of tennis balls and throwing them for your dog is a great way to get your dog moving. Don't worry if he doesn't bring them back. After training you get your exercise by putting all of the balls back in the bucket.
If your dog is sick do not bring them to class. Your dog will not be learning if he is ill. Allow him to rest at home until he feels better. In addition if your dog is in heat, bring her in sanitary pants.
Please call if you are unable to attend class. Leave a voicemail on either phone number if you cannot make it to class. We don't want to wait for you if you are not coming.
Do not feed your dog prior to coming to group class. A hungry dog is going to be more interested in listening to you despite all of the distractions.
Please wear comfortable shoes and clothing. We conduct classes on the grass and it is imperative that you wear comfortable shoes.
Lastly, Please be on time! It is very frustrating when you arrive after class has started and it disrupts all the other dogs learning.
Remember keep the training positive and fun!!
