The obedience training program is designed for dogs over 6 months old and is perfect for building a strong foundation of good behavior and communication.
Each session is tailored to your dog’s individual needs—no wasting time on behaviors they already know. If your dog already has a strong foundation we can start from there! If your dog is just learning the basics we can start from there!
Whether you're dealing with stubborn behavior, a lack of focus, or simply want to strengthen the bond with your dog, this program sets the foundation for lifelong good behavior.
