| Private
In-Home Lessons |
| This
program is convenient and personal. Our trainer will come to your home
and conduct one-hour private training sessions with you and your dog.
Private lessons are great for the busy owner with a limited schedule as
lessons can be conducted in the evenings or on weekends, and allow for
tailored scheduling. Also, private lessons allow for full customization
of the training program, based on the temperament of the dog and the goals
of the owner. Private lessons may be better for the dog that is easily
distracted or that may have difficulty appropriately interacting with
other dogs. |

| In-Board
Training (Offered in Partnership with Thunderhawk Canine) |
| This
program is a convenient service for owners who would like to have a trained
dog, but do not have the time to participate in lessons and practice daily
with their dog. Your dog will be trained in our home and live as a part
of our family. Your dog will have several training sessions each day as
well as play sessions. Upon completion of the program, we will demonstrate
each of the behaviors your dog has learned, the commands for each behavior
and how to ensure that your dog will continue to obey these commands.
Additional (2-3) follow-up lessons will be provided free of charge. Problem
behaviors can also be addressed as part of the In-Board Training program.
