Our training programs are highly personalized and vary considerably from dog to dog and owner to owner. They vary both in the structure and layout of our programs as well as in the cost and duration of the training. We understand that what works for one canine partnership will not work for everyone. Each of our training programs is custom tailored to your specific situation. There are a number of factors that we evaluate prior to building a training package for you: such as your dog’s age, temperament, previous training, as well as your training goals. In order to come up with a plan that will work best for you and your dog, we offer a discounted consultation. This is an opportunity for us to meet with your family as well as your dog and gain insight into the unique circumstances that affect your dog’s training.

Behavioral training
Behavioral training is any type of training that teaches dogs to behave well around both people and other animals. This includes housebreaking, obeying basic commands, and enforcing proper social skills. Our trainer will also work to correct any behavioral problems such as excessive barking. Behavioral training is the very basic foundation of training that is appropriate for younger dogs who are just joining your family or older dogs who may have picked up a few bad habits.
*Please note, we cannot work with aggressive temperaments at this time.
Obedience training
Obedience training is any type of training that focuses on your pup following commands. This includes but is not limited to 'sit', 'stay', 'lie down' 'drop it', etc. Obedience training may include some behavioral training to resolve any behavioral issues before moving onto obedience lessons. This type of training is appropriate for pups of all ages.
Paddington
I just wanted to thank you for your service. When we go on vacation, I have no worries. The daily e-mails and progress reports keep me at ease. Paddington is well cared for and your attention is diligent. Most importantly, the training that you have provided has created a huge turnaround. When you rescue, you never know what you are going to get. Paddington is such a nice boy but he does not realize that he is 105 lbs. Although in his mind he was just playing, I thought we would have to find another option for him when he tackled my daughter. This action is and was not acceptable to me. Your idea to expose him to kid’s running and in action is brilliant. He always comes home from training exhausted. As you know, this is hard to do with Paddington. He comes inside when I call him. He listens much better. He goes immediately to the left side when I walk him. He is not even 2 years old and I cannot believe the results. He loves his time with you and it is so worth the small cost that you charge. Paddington is here to stay thanks to you and your efforts. You have a customer for life. Thanks again.
