TRAINING FOR THE LIFE YOU SHARE

A calmer walk.
A welcome guest.
A dog who listens.

You want to open the door, head into town or enjoy a walk without wondering what your dog will do next. Start with practical skills you can use every day.

  • Come when called — build a reliable recall.
  • Walk beside you — work on leash manners.
  • Settle in one place — practice staying until released.
  • Greet more politely — work on jumping and door manners.

BEFORE YOU TAKE THE NEXT STEP

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Do I need to know which program I want?

No. Start with your dog’s behavior and your goals. The consultation is a chance to understand your options before choosing.

How do I find out what training costs?

Pricing depends on the program. During your free phone consultation, we’ll discuss available options and their prices so you can decide what fits before purchasing.

What happens after board & train?

The one-week program includes a 1.5-hour owner session; the two-week programs include two hours. The published Community K9 and Urban K9 packages also include lifetime refreshers. Ask how that support works and how to arrange it.

Can you help with reactivity or aggression?

The team offers dedicated lessons and a behavioral board & train option. Describe your dog’s behavior before choosing. These concerns need an individual discussion; a complete fix for aggression is not guaranteed.

What does the guarantee cover?

Coverage depends on the package and the behaviors being trained. Ask the team to explain the terms, owner responsibilities and refresher support for your chosen program before enrolling.

Is the Puppy Training Consultation free?

The introductory phone consultation is free. The Puppy Training Consultation is a separate paid service. The team can explain the difference and what the puppy session includes.
