PRIVATE LESSON AT DOGTOWN
This is the course I would recommend if your dog has behavioral problem: chewing, housebreaking, aggression with people, jumping on you or others, not coming when called or pulling on the leash. This program is geared more to behavioral problems that can not be corrected in our boarding and training course. We will address each problem and show you how to correct the behavior. In this course we train you to train your dog. Each session is 90 minutes long and includes training books and lifetime phone consultation.

OR BOARDED TRAINING
If your dog pulls on leash, does not come when called, does not sit or stay this is the course I would recommend. This does not correct behavioral problems such as chewing, housebreaking, etc. I would also recommend this course if you do not have the initial time to begin the obedience training and want us to lay the foundation. We work the dog everyday at the kennels and train him to Walk on a leash, Stay, Down and set the ground work for consistent Recalls from a distance. This course includes 2 training books, your 90 minute session at the kennels, boarding in our luxury cottages, 2 free playtimes with other friendly dogs and feeding your dog his diet.
PRICES: $1000 FOR THE 8 DAY COURSE

"The Complete Guide To Dog Obedience" and "The Complete Guide To Dog Problem Solving" written by Craig Jolly (Co-Owner) with over 5 decades of training experience.

Couple the problem solving book with the obedience training book to help eliminate problems such as "not coming when called" "pulling on the leash" to name a few.

FAQs
Question: What is the best program for me?
Answer: If you have the time, I would recommend the private lesson. We train you to train your dog, and it's beneficial for the entire family to participate to ensure consistency in addressing any problems that may arise. Private lessons are ideal for dogs with various behavioral issues. The private lesson program includes problem-solving and obedience training. Boarded training is great for laying the initial groundwork for basic commands and leash training. The 90-minute family lesson at the end of the course will demonstrate how to execute commands and address behavioral issues effectively.
Question: If I choose the Private Lesson Program, what can I expect?
Answer: A Private lesson is suitable for dogs with behavioral problems such as chewing, housebreaking issues, aggression, jumping on people, pulling on the leash, and recall challenges.
Question: I don't have the time to train. I want the trainer to lay the initial groundwork, and then I can continue the training. What program should I choose?
Answer: The Boarded Training program would be the best fit for you. We establish the foundation for basic commands during the program, and we also provide a 90-minute session at the kennels upon completion to ensure a smooth transition for you to continue the training.
Question: What can I expect if I decide to do the boarded training?
Answer: Boarded Training focuses on teaching basic commands like walking on a leash without pulling, sit, stay, and come, along with training at a distance using a 30-foot leash.
Question: Will I need to continue the training when my dog comes home after the Boarded Training Program, or will he remain trained if I do not follow up?
Answer: The Boarded Training program lays the groundwork only. Without consistent follow-up training, your dog may regress once back home. Incorporating training into walks and playtime is recommended for maintaining consistency in your dog's commands.
Question: What methods do you use for training?
Answer: We use the Transitional Leash method, which guides your dog by the head to keep them focused and avoid distractions. We also incorporate food motivation and utilize a 30-foot leash for distance training. Our approach is based on positive reinforcement for successful training outcomes.
