In-Home Training
Take the first step towards having your dream dog by enrolling your pup in private in-home training. We come to you and work with you and your dog together to solve the issues you are having right where they are happening. Lessons are completely customized to your goals and the learning style of both you and your dog.
We will help you transform your life with your dog to one of understanding and enjoyment using positive reinforcement methods that work!
In-Home Training is great for:
Potty Training
Set up your pup and your home for potty training success with our expert help and advice. We'll recommend the equipment you'll need to successfully housetrain a puppy and help you create an age-appropriate routine customized for you.
Leash Walking Skills
Is your dog's leash pulling making it difficult to enjoy walks around your neighborhood? We will come to you and help you teach better leash manners where the issue is occurring; on your regular walking route!
Puppy Manners
Puppies can start in-home training the moment you bring them into your family; no need to wait for vaccinations since we will be training in the safety of your own home. Starting positive reinforcement training right away creates good habits from the start and can address common puppy behaviors such as biting and chewing.
Come When Called
Does your dog door dash to an unexpected adventure, or have difficulty coming when called out of the backyard? Training a recall in your home ensures that it will work where you need it the most.
Obedience Skills
Your home is your dog's best learning environment to start a foundation of skills such as sit, down, stay, place, come, leave it, drop it, and heel. We teach you and your dog together so you understand how to continue practicing with your dog on your own as well as use these skills in real situations (such as "place" while you are cooking and eating dinner!).
Trick Training
Trick training is not only fun; it builds a strong bond between dog and owner, increases communication and understanding, and builds confidence in shy or anxious dogs. It's a great outlet for both physical energy and mental enrichment as well! We train all sorts of tricks and offer trick title evaluations (brag awards!) through both the AKC and Do More With Your Dog.
Canine Good Citizen
Advance your dog's skills to distractions in the real world with private, one-on-one lessons customized for you. We'll start meeting for training in local parks and pet-friendly businesses and coach you and your dog together to navigate new challenges and earn the AKC Canine Good Citizen award. We also offer training and testing for AKC Community Canine and AKC Urban Canine Good Citizen.
Conditioning & Fitness
As a licensed Canine Conditioning and Fitness Coach (CCFC) I can guide you and your dog through stretches and exercises designed to build core strength and increase muscle condition. Regular conditioning exercises can help prevent sport, play, and over-exertion related injuries in active, healthy dogs and is a great way to bond with your dog.
Rates & Packages
You can choose to pay per training session or purchase packages of training sessions at a discount, depending on your needs, schedule, and budget. We also offer financing through Afterpay.
* We offer training for obedience skills, and for solving issues that stem from excitement and a lack of manners, such as jumping and door dashing. We do not specialize in fear, reactivity, aggression, or anxiety. Contact us for a referral to a qualified force-free behavior consultant if your dog has behavior issues such as these.
