training

Dog training, such as teaching your dog to respond to simple cues, will make both of your lives easier. Not only does training teach your dog good etiquette and manners, but it also helps create a bond between both of you. We offer you and your dog a balanced approach to training and modifying behavior in your dog.

Our training and socialization program is available for pups five months and up. Over the course of a stay pups gradually become calmer and more compliant, which allows for a seamless transition to your guidance. 

We follow American Kennel Club guidelines as well as the prestigious Monks of New Skete dog training practices, such as integrating your dog into human’s activities — from visiting a friend to going to work or the park. Our steadfast approach gently encourages your pooch into realizing its best life. In turn, you will have a friend who not only supports you at home, but is well-behaved in public and when interacting with its peers.

By offering a balanced approach that integrates behavioral tenets such as sit-stay and heel, results are long-lasting. We use special collars that allow us to coach your dog into following commands, in a gentle but authoritative way, as well as human-to-dog and dog-to-dog interaction.

Our training is designed for your dog to stay with us during the duration of his/ her training. Parents, no need to worry, we will be updating you with your pup’s progress throughout the training program. We’ll also be sending parents notes and videos to learn and study to get you ready to receive your pup. On your dog’s graduation day, parents will also have a class where we will go over everything you’ll need to set you and your newly trained dog up for success.
