Private Lessons
Boarding School
The following is the curriculum for boarding school. You puppy will be living in a home environment instead of a kennel environment.
Heel- Imagine walking down the street past other dogs and children and your dog is walking next to you on a loose leash.
Automatic-sit- When you stop walking your dog will sit without being told.
Sit-Stay- You can put your dog in a sit-stay for up to three minutes, walk away and she will stay where you left her even with distractions, i.e. children running past.
Come- Your dog will come to you the first time you call her from a thirty-foot distance.
Down-Stay- Your dog will stay while laying down for up to five minutes even with distractions such as other dogs, even if she can not see you.
Down & Emergency Down- If you're out walking your dog and she manages to get loose, you can give this command to keep your dog safe from being hit by a car.
Leave the Room- If you drop a glass, for example, and you want your dog to leave the area, she will do that.
Kennel- If you want her to go to her bed/place/kennel she will.
On Your Back- If you want to check your dog for fleas, she will roll over on her back for you. There are additional first aid benefits to this as well.
Stand-Stay- Ideal for brushing and bathing.
Drop-It- If your dog picks up something like a child's toy, she will drop it when you tell her.
No- If you tell her not to do something, such as jump on the furniture, she will stop.
Calming signalsand techniquesare also taught in this course.
We introduce off-leash training as well as learning how to behave both at home and in social environments. Any and all problems will be addressed such as housetraining, jumping, nipping and barking.
Once they go home we will work with you for two private sessions and show you how to handle your dog so that they will learn that he needs to listen to you as well. In addition, to training throughout the day your dog will receive one and half-hours total instruction one on one each day. He will also receive supervised playtime.
