Basic Obedience Program

6-Week Program

Basic Obedience

This specialized approach to basic obedience training includes two private lessons and four groups classes. This method allows for an optimal learning environment for both dog and handler. 

Building on Puppy Basics, this program is designed for dogs aged 6–11 months. If your dog is new to training, you will learn sit, down and place, all with implied stay. Your dog will learn new skills like heel and center, while improving distance, duration, and focus amid distractions. You’ll also learn to apply fair accountability, strengthen your bond through structured play, and address common adolescent behaviors such as jumping, pulling and counter-surfing.

Issues like jumping, over excitement and leash pulling are also addressed as well as other common adolescent behaviors.
