"Training you to train your dog" |
PROGRAMS
PUPPY
KINDE
A seven week session to begin socialization and provide a foundation of basic motivational obedience. The first class is without your puppy in order to explain the learning curve and typical puppy behavioral tendencies. This program is for puppies from eight to sixteen weeks of age. Adult dogs are not permitted as they may scare young pups and introduce fear behaviors.
BASIC
OBEDIENCE
Learn the basics……sit, down, come, stay and heel. This seven week session is for dogs of five months age or older. The course uses a motivational style rather than more forceful dominance techniques. The first class is without your dog.
COMPETITION
OBEDIENCE
These private lessons prepare you and your dog for obedience competition in AKC, UKC or Schutzhund.
OBEDIENCE
CAMP
No time to do the training yourself?
Send your dog to stay with Jody for a four-week or eight-week training program.
The four-week program covers basic obedience and two private lessons with
the owner. The eight-week session
covers advanced obedience, two private lessons and my training consultations
(limit of one per month) with your dog for the remainder of its life! What could be more comprehensive? If interested, give me a call and we’ll discuss your
dog’s individual needs.
BEHAVIORAL
CONSULTATIONS
In-home evaluation and instruction for you and your dog addressing basic obedience and behavioral problems. These may include problems such as jumping, housebreaking, biting and barking.
