Training Programs
Find the Right Program for Your Dog
The right starting point depends on the dog, the behavior, the owner's goals, and the level of support the situation requires.
An Assessment-First Standard
Different Programs. One Assessment-First Standard.
These services offer different levels of support, but they share the same foundation: understand the dog before recommending the plan, explain the communication clearly, and prepare the owner to maintain what is being taught.
Puppy Training
For owners building structure and good habits from the start.
Often considered for
- New puppies and first-time owners
- Household routines and boundaries
- Early communication and social development
- Preventing avoidable habits from becoming established
Private Lessons
For owners who want hands-on coaching built around specific goals.
Often considered for
- Leash walking and household manners
- Owner coaching and timing
- Specific behavior goals
- Families wanting direct involvement
Behavioral Rehabilitation
For dogs displaying significant fear, reactivity, avoidance, overarousal, or other behavior that calls for deeper assessment and an individualized plan.
Often considered for
- Fearful or avoidant behavior
- Reactivity and overarousal
- Significant environmental sensitivity
- Cases requiring slower, more closely managed progress
E-Collar and Off-Leash Training*
For dogs working toward reliable off-leash communication after completing the appropriate prerequisite training.
Often considered for
- Dogs that have completed a foundational program
- Owners pursuing greater reliability at distance
- Real-world environments with increased distraction
- Owners prepared for proper conditioning and follow-through
Virtual Follow-Up Coaching*
For existing clients who have completed a program and need touch-ups, follow-up support, or questions answered.
Often considered for
- Existing clients who have completed a program
- Touch-ups after training is complete
- Follow-up questions about routines and structure
- Continued support between in-person work
*Prerequisites apply. E-collar and off-leash training are only considered after your dog completes the selected foundational program and we confirm your dog is ready. Virtual follow-up coaching is available only to existing clients after completing a program.
Where to Start
Not Sure Which Program Fits?
You do not need to diagnose the problem or select the final program by yourself. Begin with the behavior you are seeing, the goals you have, and the level of support you believe you may need. The assessment process helps determine the appropriate next step.
